Are you wanting to get formated text at the server side or the client side?

Hi,

The following cod works fine for me

C#

txtCopy.Text = Regex.Replace(txtTest.Text, "<.*?>", string.Empty);//to get plain text wihtout html tags
Label1.Text = txtTest.Text;//to get formatted text

If you want to copy formatted text to another text box then you have to use ajax html editor sanitizer which is available from codeplex community. Hope this helps.

ya..i have use this.but this is not working for formatted text like bold,background color,foreground color of text.Regex.Replace(txtTest.Text, "<.*?>", string.Empty),this displays simply a text without any added style.

When you are assigning formatted text to another textbox it will give you the html text and if again try to add then it will throw you an wrror. To overcome this make use of sanitizer and try....Happy Coding
