Clean HTML

There are three options when using the Clean HTML toolbar button:
  • Default Clean
  • Clean MS HTML
  • Clean Word 2000 HTML
Click the button to use the first option (Default Clean). Use the drop-down arrow to select the other two options. Use Clean MS HTML for cleaning HTML that has been pasted from Microsoft Word. Use Clean Word 2000 HTML only for cleaning up HTML that has been pasted from Microsoft Word 2000.
