Copy text without tags

[WhiZa]

I am trying to copy a bit of text from a IE browser into frontpage, and it decides to also take the HTML tags.
How do I copy/paste the text without the tags?

I could copy it into a text editor, but I am just curious if there's an easier way.

Never used f-page, but possibly there is a "Paste Special..." option from the edit menu (there is such option in word and ppt, so it may be available in fpage too). Click on that, and select "unformatted text". That should paste text sans html codes.

Yea, there is a Paste Special, but it's only enabled when in normal mode. It is disabled when in HTML mode.
Thanks for the reply though

If not can you copy the text while in normal mode?

Yes I can paste special the text into front page, and then copy it out as straight text.
I was just hoping there was some other way, like holding down shift or some other combination to take it directly from the page.
I don't know, maybe I'm just being lazy. :o
