Strip text of all formatting on paste
- by griegs
I have an application that allows the user to create an article. The problem arises when the user pastes from something like Word which comes loaded with a bunch of markup.
I'm using a jQuery editor called tiny_mce which allows the markup. I do a htmlencode and decode obviously but it means that i carry a huge payload of markup.
Is there a way to strip (all) markup from pasted text and just keep the text?
Or is there a way that tiny_mce can show the markup as text?
