Apache to IIS translator?

[nfaber]

Hello all,

First time posting on this forum. I have a program that runs on a solaris server that generated rather detailed html (including javascript) on a Solaris server. The web pages are displayed using Apache.

What I need to do:

I need to provide the ability to:

1) FTP the proper html file from the Solaris server to a windows PC.

2) Open up the html file in word, add some text and save it.

3) FTP it back to the Solaris server in the proper directory.

4) Have it look the same on the Solaris Apache server as it did before, but with the text added by word included.


The problem is when you open an html in word, edit it and save it, it adds tons of tags that cannot be recognized by Apache (IIS stuff). I guess in part what I am looking for is an Word (IIS) to Apache translator.

Any help is appriciated.

Use a more appropriate tool, which for programming is a text editor, not a word processor.

Notepad is available on most PCs.

Thanks for the reply. Our customer has issued a requirement that their operators are able to edit html in Word. The info you gave me is helpful though. I am looking into a product called "Click-to-Convert" that may do the job.

And if your customer issues a requirement, to open a html-File in MediaPlayer or MsPaint?

Can you restrict the part of the page to be just plain text?
Shall they be able to add tags like BOLD and H2 and LIST?
