Online HTML Cleaner/Editor

[alexnifty]

Anyone know of a decent online HTML editor? I can't install anything at work and I need a quick way of cleaning up dozens of Word Documents so I can stick them in our CMS.

(yes I know real men use notepad)

well its not a cleaner, but this can be used to edit your HTML, and is develops it into a WYSIWYG view as you go :)

I'd copy and paste into notepade to strip the formating, paste it into your CMS and then format it in there. most CMS's have build in WYSIWYG

If you only need to do it once for each document, download the trial of Dreamweaver and do them all within 30 days - that'll do it. There might also be a similar thing in Komposer too, but I'm not 100% sure....

Nope, Real men do it in linux, with vi.

When pasting to our CMS you bring with you all the horrific word tags and endless other formatting nightmares. Our CMS is the lowest bidder of an NHS tender process so unsurprisingly it is as much use as a chocolate fireguard. It's actually a WYSINNWYG editor - that's "What you see Is Not Necessarily What You Get".

I ended up using a combination of http://infohound.net/tidy/ which did an ok job of thinning out the HTML clutter and then just a few find/replace operations in notepad to change colours etc. Rinse repeat on about 20 word documents my lovely manager had made.

We can't install any 3rd party applications without submitting a full business case and getting the outsourced IT guys to come do it. That means no things like dreamweaver, firefox, chrome, windows 7/8/9b for web admins, in fact it means that web admins have to use a P4 512MB RAM with a 1024*768 screen. The NHS is completely in the IT stoneage, true story.
