clearly and consistently defines where the text you want starts and stops.
First, you get the markup of the entire page. Then you extract the portion
you want from between the delimiters you define. This might be done using a
regular _expression_ match.
I wrote a custom tag to make this easier some years ago. Some info here:

doesn't work any more.

When you say text do you mean all the HTML markup of the page or do you
mean
only the content, without the navigation elements etc.?
