Regex: Scrub HTML

Question

I have a bunch of HTML code where I want to remove all the HTML markup.

I think this is possible with Regex (Regular expression). With search and replace, how would I do this?

I tried <*> where I thought * was a wildcard, but apparently not. How would I make regex find all the
< text > ?

Answer 1

A simple version would be:

<[^>]+>

[] defines a character class, ^ excludes characters. Here is an example.
