RE: [PHP] using COM (or other) to read Word file

I found this when looking for the same thing the other day for our intranet site(havent used it yet so no idea how it works) http://wvware.sourceforge.net/ Hth Thank You Brian Paulson Sr. Web Developer Email: Bpaulson@Chieftain.com Phone: 1-800-279-6397 Fax: 1-719-544-0264 URL: www.chieftain.com ------------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: Mario Soto [mailto:mario_s@amigo.net.gt] Sent: Tuesday, April 22, 2003 10:12 AM To: Dale; php general Subject: Re: [PHP] using COM (or other) to read Word file Use Macromedia Fireworks. There is an option to delete non-standars for html. When word translate the doc into html, it adds certain 'stuff' that are only understand for microsucks products. Never trust microsucks products for all your stuff. And the next time try to build your page with an html editor.

I'm writing a form for a user to upload a Word doc, and I'd like to convert the doc to HTML format. I've figured out how to do this from 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 is a Solaris platform running the latest and greatest version of PHP). If this is correct, does anybody know of any other relatively painless way to get Word docs converted to HTML? Thanks.
