I believe it is better to use strpos() in this case because it's faster.
<?php
$start = strpos(strtolower($website_code), '<body>');
// not necessary
$end = strpos(strtolower($website_code), '</body>');
$code = substr($website_code, $start, $end-$start);
echo strip_tags($code); // clean text
?>
This is very simple, but there are many HTML parsers out there if you
want to do more complex stuff.

M5 napsal(a):
I am trying to write a regex function to extract the readable (visible,
screen-rendered) portion of any web page. Specifically, I only want the
text between the <body> tags, excluding any <script> or <style> tags
within the document, also excluding comments. Has anyone here seen such
a regex? Is it possible to do in one expression?
