If you set the HTMLtext of the field to you bit of html, it will  
generally do a pretty good job of displaying only the text, though it  
will be formatted according to the html formatting tags. To get  
around this, you can do

set the HTMLText of fld "myField" to theBitOfHtml
put fld "myField" into fld "myField" -- effectively resets the the  
formatted text to whatever font, size and style the field is set to.
