Re: Only Want Text No HTML.....

You can use the FCKeditor API to do that (the following code is based on the HTML sample 8 in /_samples/html/):

function GetInnerText()
{
   // This functions shows that you can interact directly with the editor area
   // DOM. In this way you have the freedom to do anything you want with it.

   // Get the editor instance that we want to interact with.
   var oEditor = FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance('FCKeditor1') ;

   // Get the Editor Area DOM (Document object).
   var oDOM = oEditor.EditorDocument ;

   var iText ;

   // The are two diffent ways to get the text (without HTML markups).
   // It is browser specific.

   if ( document.all )      // If Internet Explorer.
   {
      iText = oDOM.body.innerText ;
   }
   else               // If Gecko.
   {
      var r = oDOM.createRange() ;
      r.selectNodeContents( oDOM.body ) ;
      iText = r.toString() ;
   }

   alert( 'Text content:\n' + iText ) ;
}

Then you can get the text by calling the function getInnerText():

<input type="button" value="Get the text without formatting" onclick="GetInnerText();" />
