Hello Monks,

I have a string with html tags as shown below. 

<style>table{border-collapse: collapse;margin-left: 1cm;font-Family: c
+ourier;width: 60%} \.hoverTable tr{background: #D8D8D8;} \.hoverTable
+ tr:hover{background-color: #ffff99; }
            </style><table border=2 class=\"hoverTable\"><tr><td bgcol
+or=\"#366092\" width=\"18%\"><font color=\"White\">Name</font></td><t
+d><b>ABC</b></td></tr><tr>
            <td bgcolor=\"#366092\" width=\"18%\"><font color=\"White\
+">Subject</font></td><td><b>XYZ</b></td></tr></table>

How can I remove the html content and retain only the plain text using HTML::Parser?
