title: How to remove HTML tags from textarea with JavaScript
body: <p>I'm loading text from database but I'd like to remove html link code from it with JavaScript.</p>
  
  <p>So lets say the textarea right now displays:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a rel="nofollow" href="http://stackoverflow.com//questions/ask"&gt;http://stackoverflow.com//questions/ask&lt;/a&gt; - good page 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I want it to display:</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://stackoverflow.com//questions/ask - good page
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there something lightweight I could use that would work for multiple links in the same textarea? </p>
