Strip HTML Tags From Text

It removes every tag such as <p>, <a> and <span> from your text and returns just the readable content. Inline tags are deleted in place, and script and style elements are removed together with everything inside them.

Yes, by default. Named entities such as &amp;, &lt;, &gt;, &quot;, &nbsp; and &pound;, plus numeric references like &#39; and hex codes, are turned back into the real characters. Uncheck Decode entities to keep them exactly as written.

Yes. With Keep line breaks on, block tags like <br>, </p>, </div> and </li> become newlines so the plain text keeps its paragraph structure. Turn it off and every tag becomes a space instead, flattening the text onto one line.

Yes. Complete <script> and <style> elements are removed along with everything between their opening and closing tags, so leftover JavaScript and CSS never appear in the output. It cleans text for reading, though, and is not a substitute for a security sanitizer.

A lone < or > that is not part of a real tag, such as in 2 < 3, is left untouched. Only valid tags, HTML comments and script or style blocks are matched and removed.

Whitespace is tidied last. With line breaks kept, runs of spaces collapse to one, each line is trimmed, and multiple blank lines squeeze down to a single gap. With line breaks off, all whitespace collapses to single spaces and the ends are trimmed.

Yes. Paste the full HTML source of a page or an email and it strips the markup down to the visible text. Very long documents are handled in one pass, and the character count under the output shows the size of the result.

No. Only tags, comments, script and style blocks and entity codes are touched. The letters, numbers, punctuation and casing of the actual text are left exactly as they were.

Yes. Stripping runs entirely in your browser and nothing is uploaded to a server, so the HTML you paste never leaves your device.
