I'm trying to configure a computed column to convert the value of a field in html plain text. So far I have not succeeded. Do you have any that may help?

thanks

You should use a computed dataset column (using JavaScript) and use a regular expression that will strip html tags, such as:

regExp = new RegExp ("<[^>]+>","gi");
str.replace(regExp,"");

Ok Jean, the script works. What I can not take are the following characters: "'" (&acute, etc.). Can you help me out with this issue?
thank you very much.

Hello,

I'm doing some tests with this computed column but I can not work. Can you check where the error may be?
thanks


regExp = new RegExp ("<[^>]+>","gi");
row["summary"].replace(regExp,"").replace("&quot;","").replace("&aacute;","á").replace("&eacute;","é").replace("&iacute;","í").replace("&uacute;","ú").replace("&oacute;","ó").replace("&nbsp;"," ");
