How to remove the HTML tags that are displaying in the text

Hi All,

 

I have a code to send the email.Upon sending the email,I am creating an activity with that mail.

 

But when I am saving the body of the email into Description field of the Activity, all the HTML tags are appearing.

 

Like if there are multiple lines present in the body of the mail, then it displays multiple <br></br> tags for each line.

 

Please help me resolve this issue.

 

Thanks,

Hi Friends,

 

Finally I got my own solution for this.

 

I have done it using the following method to eleminate the HTML tags from the rich text area field.

 

replaceAll('<[/a-zAZ0-9]*>',' ');

 

replaceAll('&nbsp;',' ');

 

Thanks,

 

Vijay

Use this to remove HTML tags from rich text area field in JavaScript:
const strippedString = htmlString.replace(/(<([^>]+)>)/gi, "");
console.log(strippedString);
