/gi,"\r");
 s = s.replace(/<br\/>/gi,"\r");
 s = s.replace(//gi,"\r");
 s = s.replace(//gi,"");
 s = s.replace(/<\/i>/gi,"");
 s = s.replace(//gi,"");
 s = s.replace(/<\/b>/gi,"");
 s = s.replace(/<blockquote>/gi,"<!--QUOTE--><BLOCKQUOTE>Quote:<table border=0 cellpadding=4 cellspacing=0 width="95%"><tr><td class=quote><!--/QUOTE--><!--STARTQUOTE-->");
 s = s.replace(/<\/blockquote>/gi,"<!--QUOTE--></td></tr></table></BLOCKQUOTE><!--/QUOTE--><!--ENDQUOTE-->");
 s = s.replace(//gi,"");
 s = s.replace(/<\/p>/gi,"");
 s = s.replace(/<\/a>/gi,"");
 s = s.replace(/<img src=\"([^\"]*)*\"[^>]*>/gi,"<img src='$1' alt='$1'>");
 s = s.replace(/(.+?)<\/a>/gi,"$2");
 s = s.replace(/<.*\/>/gi,"");
 s = s.replace(/<.*>/gi,"");
 s = s.replace(/<\/.*>/gi,"");
while(s != s.replace(/\r[\s]*\r/gi,"\r")){
 s = s.replace(/\r[\s]*\r/gi,"\r");
 }
