added, so it should be easy to see what has changed.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The reason this library was written was to convert HTML email contents into a text
based email content, where the rendering does not have to be as accurate as with
a text based browser. However, there must be many more uses for it.
This library attempts to deal with non-standard HTML, but may occasionally suffer
from problems with pages that are not properly written - most especially:
Tags written as <tagName attribute=somethingWithA"or'InItButNotSurroundedByQuotes>,
Closing </pre> or </textarea> tags without their corresponding opening tags,
Tags within <textarea> </textarea> tags, which will be rendered, even though they
should not be.
Conversion requires a lot of preg_replace statements, so it can be quite slow with
large HTML files.
******
To use
******
This library requires PHP 4+
To use this library, put the following line in your script before the part that needs it:
require('PATH_TO_THIS_FILE/html2text.php');
To convert HTML/PHP to text:
$textVersion = html2text( $HTMLversion );
************
Further info
************
For the technically minded, this is the process I use for converting HTML to approx text:
REMOVE php start and end tags
REMOVE <!-- -->
ensure HTML uses entities in the right places (like inside tags) so strip_tags works properly
<STYLE|SCRIPT|OPTION>
carefully remove everything between them
strip_tags except the important ones
replace all \s that are after the start or a </pre> and before <pre> or end with a single space
</TITLE|HR>

strip tags again, leaving nothing this time
un-htmlspecialchars
word wrap (this will also affect pre, but as this is intended for email use, I don't care)
