Remove all the HTML tags and display a plain text only inside (in case XML is not well formed)

I think the following Regex and HtmlDecode would do:string html = ...;string textonly = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode( Regex.Replace(html, @"|", ""));Any HTML construct that would not be stripped off properly by this?

string html = ...;
string textonly = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(
         Regex.Replace(html, @"<!--[\S\s]*?-->|<(?:"".*?""|'.*?'|[\S\s])*?>", ""));
