HTML Tag Stripper
Instantly cleans code, leaving only the plain text content.
A Utility for content creators, developers, and anyone who needs to quickly strip away code to get to the core message. Paste your text below in the left column to get started.
How This Tool Works.
Ever copied text from a webpage, email, or a document editor, only to find it's full of messy HTML tags and weird code? Our HTML Tag Stripper is a simple utility that instantly cleans your code, leaving you with only the plain text content you need.
​
How to Use the Tool.
Simply paste your HTML code into the input box on the left. The cleaned, plain-text version will appear instantly in the output box on the right, updating in real-time as you type or change the options.
​
Customizing Your Output.
You have full control over the cleaning process using the options at the top:
​
-
Keep Specific Tags: If you need to preserve basic formatting, you can specify which HTML tags you'd like to keep. By default, we keep common tags like <p>, <strong>, and <em>, but you can easily customize this comma-separated list to fit your needs. All other tags will be stripped away.
-
Decode HTML Entities: The tool automatically decodes special HTML entities back into their readable symbols. This means codes like © or & are cleanly converted into © and &.
​​
As the text is cleaned, you'll see a live Word and Character Count for the final output, giving you an accurate measure of your actual content. Once you're done, just click the "Copy to Clipboard" button to grab your clean text.
