How to Use the HTML Stripper Tool

What is HTML Stripping?

HTML stripping is the process of removing HTML tags from a document while preserving the textual content. This is particularly useful when you need to extract plain text from web pages, HTML emails, or any HTML-formatted content for use in plain text editors, content analysis, or data processing.

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Paste HTML - Copy your HTML code and paste it into the input field on the left.
  2. View Results Instantly - See the cleaned text appear in real-time in the output field.
  3. Adjust Settings - Use the options to preserve line breaks or toggle auto-strip mode.
  4. Export or Copy - Use the buttons to copy the cleaned text or download it as a file.
  5. Check Statistics - Monitor the reduction percentage and other metrics in the stats panels.

Practical Use Cases

  • Content Migration - Extract text from old websites when migrating to new platforms
  • Email Processing - Convert HTML emails to plain text for better compatibility
  • SEO Analysis - Analyze textual content without HTML markup interference
  • Data Extraction - Scrape web content and remove HTML tags for data analysis
  • Accessibility - Create plain text versions of web content for screen readers

Tips for Best Results

Pro Tip: Enable "Preserve line breaks" when you want to maintain the paragraph structure from the original HTML. This is especially useful for content with multiple paragraphs, lists, or complex formatting.

The HTML Stripper tool automatically handles HTML entities (like &amp; for &, &lt; for <, etc.) and converts them to their proper characters. For complex HTML with scripts or styles, the tool focuses only on the visible textual content, ignoring code that doesn't render as text.
