.doc to .html

XML, Perl, Python, and other languages can be discussed here, even if it isn't PHP (We might forgive you).

.doc to .html

Post by icesolid »

Does anyone know of any good programs for converting a .doc to .html page.

I was given a Word Document that is a complex form that I need to take from the Word Document style and put it into a web format so that I can write in querys for the fields to be filled out into a MySQL database.

Microsoft Word has a Save As HTML. It doesn't produce very good HTML, but it works, at least on reasonably simple documents. I never tried it on a complex form.

It does have a Save As HTML feature. However, for forms in Word they do not transfer into HTML very good at all, in fact that code down right sucks.

Why don't you just create the form yourself if it's just one form? Am I misunderstanding the question?
