Martin, Why do you say that it does not strip all the html - what do you use to check it? The reason I ask is that I have just copied a long piece of an Index from Ancestry, and Pasted into the Research Notes. Highlighted with ctrl+A, copied and pasted into an html editor, and there is no html present.
Are you assuming the html is still there because the formatting hasn't changed?
