Too often, I am obliged (don't ask why) to preserve the format of a MS word
doc to show up on the web. I get the doc and I make an html file to suit. I
used to do it by hand and it looked a good translation from word processor
doc on screen to web browser and it validated and so on, maybe not as nice
as you guys would like, but it passed. But it is far too much work and quite
regular and I have taken to simply saving within Word as an html file. It
takes a few seconds instead of hours and is tooooo great a temptation. It
works and produces an almost exact match to the word doc when expressed in a
browse r- I was amazed (I try it in Mozilla and IE and iCab and I am assured
it is OK on PCs with the regular browsers. But the code looks so crappy to
me. (Mac, Office 2001). It would never validate in a million years and does
not. I am amazed no one has told me it does not work right on their machines
around the world...
My question is: any better wsiwig for this that would produce the goods but
better code? I have Dreamweaver on a PC - maybe I should use it, I have
always hated these things, ie. the wsiwigs ... and PCs but I am mellowing on
these
