Maybe I should clarify.

$message = '<p>Visit <a href="http://jaxn.org"; target="_top">My personal
site</a> to learn more about me.</p>
<p>Visit <a href="http://memigo.com";>memigi</a> to learn about current
events.';

What I want is to run a preg_replace to get the following:
Visit My personal site (http://jaxn.org) to learn more about me.

Visit memigo (http://memigo.com) to learn about current events.

stripping the HTML is easy, but before I do I want to convert the links.

Thanks,
-Jackson
