Nedo,

is there a simple way to convert a html-string to a plain text-string?

In my opinion do you have to explain this more, because a html-string is a
plain text-string?

ok:
i have a string with this content:
<html>
<head>
....
</head>
<body>
text text text <br> text text <br>
<a href="link">link</a>

</body>
</html>

so what i want is a method to convert the string above in this one:
text text text
text text
link

i hope you understand now

thanks

Nedo,

Your HTML sample is absolute not clean what can be in reality as well.
However I understand now that you need a regex or a routine that tells

every word that start after > until the next < is reached?

I am absolute no Regex expert.
I can tell it in a routine however I think that Regex is more in it place.

Maybe this links can help you.

RegexLib

Expresso

Otherwise maybe somebody who knows better Regex than me can help you. (That
is almost everybody. I have to go to those websides as well to create this)

I hope it helps something.
