    copied!<p>I have a lab assignment and I'm dwelled on about removing html tags. Here is method for removing html tags:</p> <pre><code>public String getFilteredPageContents() { String str = getUnfilteredPageContents(); String temp = ""; boolean b = false; for(int i = 0; i&lt;str.length(); i++) { if(str.charAt(i) == '&amp;' || str.charAt(i) == '&lt;') { b = true; } if(b == false) { temp += str.charAt(i); } if(str.charAt(i) == '&gt;' || str.charAt(i) == ';') { b = false; } } return temp; } </code></pre> <p>And here is my text's earliest form:</p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN"&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"&gt; &lt;meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 2.0"&gt; &lt;title&gt;A Shropshire Lad&lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body bgcolor="#008000" text="#FFFFFF" topmargin="10" leftmargin="20"&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font size="6"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;center&gt; &lt;pre&gt;&lt;font size="7"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Shropshire Lad &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;strong&gt; by A.E. Housman Published by Dover 1990&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/pre&gt; &lt;/center&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This collection of sixty three poems appeared in 1896. Many of them make references to Shrewsbury and Shropshire, however, Housman was not a native of the county. The Shropshire of his book is a mindscape in which he blends old ballad meters, classical reminiscences and intense emotional experiences &amp;quot;recollected in tranquility.&amp;quot; Although they are not particularly to my taste, their style, simplicity and timelessness are obvious even to me. Below are two short poems which amused me, I hope you find them interesting too.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;hr size="8" width="80%" color="#FFFFFF"&gt; &lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;pre&gt;&lt;font size="5"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt; XIII&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; When I was one-and-twenty I heard a wise man say, 'Give crowns and pounds and guineas But not your heart away;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/pre&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;pre&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Give pearls away and rubies But keep your fancy free. But I was one-and-twenty, No use to talk to me.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/pre&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;pre&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;When I was one-and-twenty I heard him say again, 'The heart out of the bosom Was never given in vain; 'Tis paid with sighs a plenty And sold for endless rue' And I am two-and-twenty, And oh, 'tis true 'tis true. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/pre&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;hr size="8" width="80%" color="#FFFFFF"&gt; &lt;pre&gt;&lt;font size="5"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;LVI . The Day of Battle&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; 'Far I hear the bugle blow To call me where I would not go, And the guns begin the song, &amp;quot;Soldier, fly or stay for long.&amp;quot;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/pre&gt; &lt;pre&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Comrade, if to turn and fly Made a soldier never die, Fly I would, for who would not? 'Tis sure no pleasure to be shot.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/pre&gt; &lt;pre&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'But since the man that runs away Lives to die another day, And cowards' funerals, when they come, Are not wept so well at home,&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/pre&gt; &lt;pre&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Therefore, though the best is bad, Stand and do the best, my lad; Stand and fight and see your slain, And take the bullet in your brain.'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/pre&gt; &lt;hr size="8" width="80%" color="#FFFFFF"&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>And when implement my method on this text:</p> <pre><code> charset=iso-8859-1"&gt; A Shropshire Lad A Shropshire Lad by A.E.

I can't get away from that bunch of code? Thanks...</p>
