'@<[\\/\\!]*?[^<>]*?>@si', // Strip out HTML tags
'@<style[^>]*?>.*?</style>@siU', // Strip style tags
properly
'@<![\\s\\S]*?--[ \\t\\n\\r]*>@' // Strip multi-line

This function turns HTML into text... strips tags, comments spanning multiple lines including CDATA,
and anything else that gets in it's way.
It's a frankenstein function I made from bits picked up on my travels through the web, thanks
to the many who have unwittingly contributed!
