problem with email link.

I can't just cut and paste, or I will still get all the crappy Word code, which is causing the problems. (sigh)

Sure you can. Copy from the browser, paste into Notepad, copy from
Notepad (has to be a separate step) and paste into Composer. That way
you don't have to retype your text. You'll probaby have to do it a
block at a time, but it's still oodles faster.

The most trouble (that I know of) has been when

some users have tried to update there MS Frontpage sites useing NVU.
Which did / doesn't really work too well due to the large amount of
crappy code that is generated by the MS family of products.

It is virtually impossible to update Frontpage sites without Frontpage.
"Once in Frontpage, always in Frontpage". This is partly because the
code you see in Frontpage is =not= what ends up on the server - server
side frontpage stuff mucks with it. Also, the references you see on
your "home web" get re-resolved on the server.

I have had the same problems converting FrontPage sites with other
tools, and ended up copying and pasting through Notepad to sterilzed
them, and then rebuilding the site from scratch.
