Dale -- ..and then Dale said... % % Hello all. Hi! % % I'm writing a form for a user to upload a Word doc, and I'd like to Ick! % convert the doc to HTML format. I've figured out how to do this from Well, that's better than nothing ;-) % the php.net man pages, but it looks like this will ONLY work if the server % is a Win platform. Is my assumption correct? (The server I have to use AFAIK, yes; you have to be able to run Word. % is a Solaris platform running the latest and greatest version of PHP). Much better than Windoze! % % If this is correct, does anybody know of any other relatively painless way % to get Word docs converted to HTML? Forget Word entirely; go with something like wvHtml from wvware.com and call it as an external program. % % Thanks. Sure thing! % % % Dale Walters % (412) 656-6351 HTH & HAND :-D -- David T-G * There is too much animal courage in (play) davidtg@justpickone.org * society and not sufficient moral courage.
