Hi,
I use a WYSIWYG rich text editor on a few web sites for clients to
manage their content, but a lot of them use word and paste into the box
and end up with a lot of crappy code as a result.
Has anyone created an ASP include that will clean up the word html and
just leave the basic formatting intact?
Thanks. 8 5480
Not to my knowledge.... perhaps one of the more "experience d" NG users can
help......?

I don't know of an ASP method for doing this (though I wouldn't be surprised
if one existed). Whenever I need to copy something from Word into an
HTML/ASP document, I will first paste it into Notepad, then select
everything in Notepad, copy it, and paste that into the HTML/ASP document.
It's an extra step, but seems to get rid of the formatting characters.

Personally I just detest Word....... period (prefer to use my own custom
built editor and before that, have used Notepad since I first started in web
dev).

Oh, I agree 100%. I would NEVER use Word as a web editor. But
occassionally, I might have some content that needs to be put into a web
page that comes from a Word document. :)

That gets tough, because a lot of the Word is XML, and a lot is nested
tables to get formatting, and it's hard to tell what you may or may
not need.

Not what you want, however Dreamweaver can 'tidy up' a lot of Words HTML
(and has a menu option to do so)

Obviously Word as an HTML editor is a bad idea. What I'm talking about
is when a client has a web-based WYSIWYG content editor and frequently
pastes word data into it -- the HTML created is bulky and atrocious.
In trying out some PHP the other day, I found a PHP script which is a
complex series of find-and-replace commands aimed at cleaning up
unnecessary tags and Word html code fromn a string, but leaving the
essentials like bold italics in place.
Just wondering if anyone knew of an ASP equivalent.
The commercial Advanced Content Editor (ACE) has a special button that will
clean up word XML... if the user remembers to press it on paste.
I agree a custom function would be nice. This problem limits the utility of
roll-your-own web-based CMS systems.

I have a very large html table created by MS Word, saved as it's "Web
Page, Filtered" file type. Every html table cell has lots of
formatting tags. Most of the file size is that formatting.
Is there a free or inexpensive editor that can quickly remove all
formatting to minimize the file size?
I tried a few freeware editors, but wasn't able to find a way to clean
it up.
