How to retrieve value from an HTML Type Field

[Para5]

Hi All,
Is anyone knows how to retrieve value from an HTML Type Field. I have a field on form 'long_description'  And I want to print only the text  from it.

I tried this one   current.getValue('long_description');   but it print all the tag.

Thank you.

Updated script. added space between ""(double quote).

var regex =  /( |<([^>]+)>)/ig;
var content =current.getValue("long_description").replace(regex, " ");

Hello,

Did you try the code I provided you:-

var text = current.long_description.getDisplayValue();

// Replace all <br /> tags with a CRLF

var regX1 = /<br\s\/>/ig;
var text2 = text.replace(regX1, String.fromCharCode(13));

// Replace all remainging HTML tags with ""

var regX2 = /(<([^>]+)>)/ig;
var finalText = text2.replace(regX2, "");
