Hi all: I have an application that end up mailing a newly-created News Item to a mailing list upon it being submitted. The body text of this email is stored in HTML; I need to strip the HTML tags from the content and render it as PLAINTEXT before sending it to the MailHost and then off to the Mailing List. I intalled the Strip-o-Gram product but cannot get it to work at all in the way I expected it to work. So, what I did was to create an External Method called html_to_text which I set up like Module Name: stripogram.html_to_text and Function Name html_to_text. Then, in my DTML Method that does the mailing, I have it set up so that it is as follows: << <dtml-with object_published> <dtml-sendmail mailhost="MailHost"> To: email@address.com From: <dtml-var from_user null="Some User <nobody@here.org>"> Subject: <dtml-var title> <html> <body> <dtml-var "html_to_text(getHTMLBody)"> </body> </html> </dtml-sendmail> </dtml-with>
If you were doing this simple thing, which is to say, taking the html tags off of a tagged tract of text, rendering it as plaintext for an email, what process or procedure would you use? Cheers in advance, Chris
