Hi everyone - I'm having fun (!) trying to sort out the nightmare that is Word's exported HTML. It really, really stinks - and it is bizarrely inconsistent...
Is there any chance that running the Word exported files through another Web editor (e.g. GoLive) might make things more consistent to start with? Chris ... ...
... Keith, It is not necessarily the most SC sort of idea, but BBEdit 7 comes to mind. You could tell it for instance to look for a pattern that contained...
