Not sure what you mean...You want the number of html tags in the page or inside a certain element.

Look into getElementsByTagName with *

�<...>' or <.../> as one tag.
for example, '<html>' count one and <head><title> count two,
'<h1><color></color></h1>' count four.
Thanks a lot for any help.

JavaScript does not know how the page is formatted so it has no clue. You can try reading nodes in the dom and see what type of node it is, other than that it is up to you to parse text.

Why on earth do you need to do such a weird thing? Perhaps if we knew why you were trying to do this, we could pose alternatives.

And I expect an empty element tag like '<br/>' counts as one? I too would like to know where this strange requirement came from.

I want to compute 'text density' and filter useless line.
I have formated it to dom style and perhaps need regexp or others.
I don't confirm it.

'text density':some one line words divid tag count of current line.
if some one line has too many tags, We think it is useless.

Huh? How do you figure that? Are you just trying to figure out a way to "pretty print" the code? Most IDEs will do that for you.
