Re: Convert word(.doc) file to html file

It's not perl, and the results are not perfect, but WvWare has a program called wvHtml, which does exactly what you want.

It's not easy to juggle a pregnant wife and a troubled child, but somehow I managed to fit in eight hours of TV a day.

wvWare++ I had to convert about 80 or so Word Docs into HTML and even though `wvHtml` didn't work very for me, `wvText` did. I created a 'pipeline': WORD -> wvText -> custom Perl -> HTML::FromText -> HTML Tidy The results are still up over at the Nashville Film Festival 2003 films page. jeffa L-LL-L--L-LL-L--L-LL-L-- -R--R-RR-R--R-RR-R--R-RR B--B--B--B--B--B--B--B-- H---H---H---H---H---H--- (the triplet paradiddle with high-hat)	[reply]
