Removing HTML tags: is there a Perl-equivalent to PHP 'strip_tags'?

[Francesco Moi]

Hi.

I've got some HTML texts, but I want to remove HTML tags from it.
I mean, convert '<b>foo</b>' into 'foo'.

In PHP you can use 'strip_tags':
http://www.php.net/strip_tags

Is there any Perl-equivalent?

Thanks.

Why not google for it first?
