Well OK....I'll come in with the unpopular vote then....DON'T STRIP HTML! Here is why.....
I have always found that the text you are left with will NOT look nice to the person receiving it. So by doing it the way I suggested, you can customize the plain text (like all caps heading instead of a bold underlined one via HTML). So for reasons like that, blindly removing tags just doesn't cut it in my books. my 2 cents Cheers On Thu, 2011-08-04 at 14:28 -0500, Greg Morphis wrote: > I looked at that, I want to control the email flow. > If they choose to receive text only then I want to send a text only email > stripped of html.. > > I've looked at this > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4550583/whats-the-best-way-to-remove-html-from-a-string > but I'm not sure this is the way I want to go so I'm asking you all :) > > On Thu, Aug 4, 2011 at 2:25 PM, Bryan Stevenson < > [email protected]> wrote: > > > > > Why yes there is....they are called multipart e-mails....have a look at > > CFMAILPART (or something to that effect). > > > > It allows you to send one e-mail with both a plain text and HTML > > portion.....then it's up to receiver's mail client to display what the > > user wants to see ;-0 > > > > HTH > > > > Cheers > > > > On Thu, 2011-08-04 at 14:11 -0500, Greg Morphis wrote: > > > > > I'm giving users a choice of email type, html or plain. > > > Is there a way of getting around having 2 different emails, one for html > > > content and one stripped of tags? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:346540 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
