I'm creating a view to display certain contacts in a particular group. I have the view working except for one item. I have a custom data field of type Note>RichTextArea in which users type an "About Me" info. When this field is displayed in the view it the text plus the HTML code.

to see the view go to http://sainfrancisocc.org/staff/directory

I've tried using the option to strip HTML from the field but it doesn't do anything. I've checked the field in civiCRM to make sure there's not some corrupt data that's causing it.

Any ideas?

Not sure how to fix this "properly" but you could customize the View template for this field and run the output through strip_tags http://php.net/manual/en/function.strip-tags.php and that would be a fairly simple solution.
