Thanks Jon, Basically it's any of the pages on www.odi.org.uk
Our host doesn't support php so I'll look into the editplus bit. sio On 14 Oct 2002 at 16:47, Jon Haworth wrote: Hi Sio, > What is the best way to implement a text only website > without using databases i.e. taking an existing > graphics-heavy website and stripping out all of the > graphics?

You could run the pages through PHP's strip_tags() (http://php.net/strip-tags), or through Editplus's "Strip HTML tags" (http://editplus.com/). The PHP route is more versatile as you can tell it to ignore certain tags (you might want to keep <b> and </b>, for example), but you'd have to write a function and feed the files through it - shouldn't be a big job though. If it's really just <img> tags you want to remove, I'd write a quick script in whatever you like that parses the files and removes them - they're pretty easy to grab, because they're not in two parts. The pseudocode goes something like: 1. reset "new content" variable. 2. open file at the beginning. 3. if there are less than 4 characters left in the file, go to step 6, otherwise check next 4 characters. 4. if they're not "<img", add them to "new content" and return to step 3, otherwise keep going. 5. keep checking characters until you find ">", then return to step 3. 6. add remaining characters to "new content" and dump it to the screen or another file. 7. done! If you've got a link to the site, or you can upload a sample page somewhere, that would be really helpful.
