Hi Jim and Dave,

Sorry I did not read this thread too much...
I should have :-)

Not sure that I understand Dave's request because I have not read all

Probably, Jim makes an allusion to the StripTags function that is in  
the script of the unique card of the Rev Search Engine?
I hope so...

Best regards from Paris,
Eric Chatonet.
