Does anybody knows of a good application to get it done quickly and efficiently ?
I bought Word Cleaner but the results are merely sufficient and I need go over all the generated html files to clean tons of useless injected tags like
<strongH</strong<strongell</strong<strongo </strong<emWor</em<emld</em
Most of the articles displayed on a website I manage are based on documents written on MS Word by people how has little idea of what are margins for or ordered/unordered lists, foot/end notes etc and I cannot make them use something else.
Does anyone has a tip to help me handle those pages more efficiently than going over them to correct and apply my CSS style ?
NB: Just for the record, using "Save as HTML DOC" in Word is faaar worst than Word cleaner

I would prefer a small and light-weight solution, so that I can do at least a rudimentary audit of the source code. I would also prefer something that is in the 'main' repository, so that I get the benefit of stable release upgrades.

I've tried several times to install radio tray on my fresh ubuntu 11.10 installation but when I run ~$ sudo apt-get install radiotraythe following dialog pops up at the end of the script:
Media change: please insert the disc labeled
'Ubuntu 11.10 _Oneiric Ocelot_ - Release i386 (20111012)'
in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter
I've performed previous installations of this app on another computer using the same repository and all went smooth. My Ubuntu Oneiric version was installed from a USB flash drive, so don't understand that request from apt-get.
