[Gambas-user] Extracting text from the html of TextEdit control

[richard terry]

Is there a way to extract just the text you see in the control as opposed to 
the total html:

See the piccie, where I have typed one two three into the textedit control

the code mystring = textedit1.text, gives the resultant html, whereas I want 
to be able to manipulate just the text, or use reading just the text to do 
other things (like popup auto-complete, spell check, insert diagrams etc).

Any help appreciated.

Richard
