Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone knows of a class that can perform a word count of
text in a string that ignores HTML?
IE, something that would correctly determine that the following string is 6
words long:
"<blockquote>
This string is six words long.
</blockuote>"
If such a beastie exists, I'd very much appreciate being pointed towards it.
Much warmth,
Murray
