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.
