Remove html tags from UIWebView

Question

Hi, I am developing an application for iphone which needs to load some description to a UIWebView. But text that loads into the UIWebView shows some html tags like <p></p>.Is there any way to remove these type of tags?

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

This is the best answer and is exactly what you are looking for ...

Write the following script in the webView delegate method. ( UIWebviewdidfinishLoading)

NSString *myText = [webView stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:@"document.documentElement.textContent"];

Answer 2

I asked a similar question the other day and got some good responses. I imagine one of these could suit your needs.
