We do not write code to order here. You need try this yourself and then ask a specific question if you have a problem.

Thanks for your reply. I just wanted to have an idea on how i can start on this. If there is one illustration sample program that would be a great start.

Do you mean all tags? Or only some tags are "unwanted"? Do you mean to extract pure text from HTML, make it unformatted text?

Not all tags, i need to remove only specific tags

Than you probably need to find HTML parser; parse, filter out unwanted parts, generate HTML back.
Please see Solution 1.

Indeed it is a viable solution.

You might Google for HTML parsing with C++[^].
