[Edit] "Remove Tags" function does not work

[Korb]

When I select a piece of HTML code that includes tags and select "Remove Tags" from the context menu, I expect the text to be cleared of all tags. However, no changes occur and all tags remain unchanged.

Mozilla Firefox 127.0b7 (64-bit) Edit 1.9 (January 17, 2023) Microsoft Windows 10.0.19045.4412

Can you provide an example that can be tested?

<h2 class="sr-only">Navigation Menu</h2>
    <div class="AppHeader-globalBar pb-2 js-global-bar">
      <div class="AppHeader-globalBar-start">
          <deferred-side-panel data-url="/_side-panels/global">

</button>

This code remains unchanged after selecting it in the input field and applying the "Remove Tags" command.

Expected behavior: Only the following text remains:

Navigation Menu

[erosman]

Remove Tags is set to remove the following tags: b, i, u, del, ul, li, table, tr, td, img, code, url, blockquote, quote, list, color, size

I can look into a more general tag removal when I work on the next update of the extension.

If this ticket stopped being a bug report and became a feature request, perhaps it should have been renamed.

I would appreciate it if there was a tooltip in the UI with a list of tags that this function can remove. Also, I'm looking forward to this feature being able to remove the following tags:

a, blockquote, br, button, div, em, figcaption, figure, h1, h2 (...), iframe, nav, ol, p, path , section, strong, span

Or at least their parameters.

[erosman]

Remove Tag was initially set to remove the tags that are added by the Edit itself.

If this ticket stopped being a bug report and became a feature request, perhaps it should have been renamed.

It doesn't matter. I will read all open issues when working on an update.
