The PlainText function removes HTML and XML tags, converting tags such as these to an appropriate symbol:
-
- "
The return value from these functions is the encoded or decoded string.
Syntax
EncodeUrl( String )

Examples
If you show an RSS feed in a text gallery and then set the Text property of a label in that gallery to ThisItem.description, the label might show raw HTML or XML code as in this example:
<p>We have done an unusually "deep" globalization and localization.<p>
If you set the Text property of the label to PlainText(ThisItem.description), the text appears as in this example:
We have done an unusually "deep" globalization and localization.
