Robert,
I have had to do this in the past. I found a freeware app that will strip the HTML tags leaving raw ascii text. I then brought the text in and applied the appropriate tags to it. It is a two-step process, but it worked.

www.freeware.com has an app, html2text that can strip the tags. Of course, there are probably others available. Framescript might be able to do it too.
Dave
