   Keep lying if it makes you feel better.  The class attribute, the one =
you are deleting in your example, is standard HTML.  See =
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/global.html#h-7.5.2.

   Word produces fine HTML with XML namespaces used to define additional =
attributes to support persistance of additional information not = supported
by HTML.  Are you going to claim that XML namespaces and = namespace
qualified tags and attributes are wrong?  Do you make the same = claims
about all applications of XML or just those you won't to wrongly =
disparage?

  No I'm not otherwise we wouldn't need the code.

  Word produces horrific html with sh*tloads of crap in it. I'm not =

astonishing.

  Std HTML & CSS by arse. IE doesn't handle std CSS so how likely is it
  that word would produce something which wouldn't be rendered by IE?
