I set up WSN Links to grab the section and details descriptions for the "description" meta tag, but sometimes it runs into some HTML which doesn't work in the meta tag and messes up the page. How can I strip out the HTML before it gets written to the meta tag?
This is the "get meta description" button? I'll change it to strip HTML, though nobody should use HTML inside a meta tag because it'll mess up the search engine listing too.
If you're really using the version you say you're using, please pay attention to critical security updates.

I used this for the meta tag
IF {TID} contains detailcomments
meta name="description" content="{LINKDESCRIPTION[200]}"
Some of my descriptions have HTML and images, so that is why the HTML gets written to the description meta tag.

Use {LINKDESCRIPTIONSTRIPPED[200]} then.
