Hi
I am using a regular expression :

C#

@"<[^>]*>"

to remove html tags, now it works great except for removing <
anyone have any suggestions, I googled and couldn't find anything.

The problem also comes in that I can only add it to that expression, so extra fictions or anything, that's a bit challenging.

King Regards and Thanx in advance

1) DON'T SHOUT. Using all capitals is considered shouting on the internet, and rude (using all lower case is considered childish). Use proper capitalisation if you want to be taken seriously.

2) Try to make sense - that doesn't explain what you are having a problem with, or what help you want.

I stated that except for the < , that is the issue

Try this: Remove all the HTML tags and display a plain text only inside (in case XML is not well formed)[^]

It works perfectly fine for me. What does the HTML look like what you're trying to strip?
