Text only version of web site

[Giles]

Does anyone know where I can see some asp (vbscript) code to convert a web
page into a text only version, like for accessibility?
Example at

http://wave.webaim.org/report?textonly&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.microsoft.com

My html is stored in a database so it can be easily manipulated, but it is
not XML.
Thanks for any ideas.

Do not use presenational markup, and use a blank stylesheet. I would
also suggest that you use semantic markup, and validate it.

eg: <a href="<%=reques t.servervariabl es("SCRIPT_NAME ")%>?
style=blank.css ">Text Only</a>

<%
if request.queryst ring("style") = "blank.css" then
%>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet " href="blank.css ">
<% else %>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet " href="regular.c ss">
<% end if%>

You can set some sessions so that the blank stylesheet remains when the
user is navigating through the site.
