This is part of a largerscript designed to strip out . Once the tags are removed, theresult is written to a file which is then printed out and sent with theorder shipment.The only part of the HTML stripping script I can't do is changing entitieslike © and & to (c) and &. If I replace things like (r) (that's aregistered TM symbol) with ® or ® I screw up the original point ofthe script.To make things even *more* difficult for myself, the HTML stripping isitself part of a larger script designed to emulate a word wrap on myprintouts. This script requires counting charcters in words until a limitis hit. If I start expanding 1-character entities to 5-character strings,the count is off and it doesn't wrap correctly.MichaelMichael Winston *By e-mail!: michaelw@dhorse.comSenior Web Developer *By web!: http://www.dhorse.com/Dark Horse Comics, Inc. *By fax!: 503/654/9440
