This routine will first strip all HTML tags, then convert any HTML entites into their single byte equivalents, ie, ¶ becomes the paragraph symbol (chr(182)), etc. Entities that can't be converted will be changed to a space. The ISO-8859-15 encoding is used for converting the entities to single byte characters.
