[opencms-dev] Cleaning paste from word document - Re-configure jTidy

[Olli Aro]

Thanks Chase,

That is the process I have been recommending before,
but you know how the people are like - they want they
life as easy as possible.

I am still hoping that there must be a way to do this
with jTidy, since that is what jtidy is for and
opencms uses it already. As far as I can see the
com.opencms.htmlconverter class is an obvious place to
do it, since it is called everytime you save from the
WYSIWYG. Can anyone confirm if I am going to the right
direction with this?

I find the easiest thing to do (and what we recommend
to our users) is
to copy and paste into Notepad, then copy that into
OpenCMS. It will
strip any formatting and allow you to do that in the
CMS. As for any
automated "cleanup", I'd be interested in it if it
would make changes
before publishing (so a user can see it in the offline
project).

document.


Hi all,

I am trying to find a way to clean html after a paste
from MS word. I
noticed that opencms uses jtidy. I found a class
com.opencms.htmlconverter and overwrote it by adding
line
m_tidy.setWord2000(true) in the method public void
convertHTML (Reader
input, Writer output). Did not seem to make any
difference - Anyone know
what I am doind wrong? :)

Thanks,

Olli
