Regular Expression

<?[^<>]*>|<[^>]*

New

Strip all HTML tags from a string. HTML tags are enclosed in < and >.

The regex will be applied on a line-by-line basis, meaning partial tags will need to be handled by the regex. Don't worry about opening or closing tags; we just want to get rid of them all.
