Hi there, I found your very handy html to wiki converter at http://diberri.dyndns.org/wikipedia/html2wiki/index.html Alas, after submitting a couple of things I realized it wasnt working properly. I create tables in Excel (there are several, unfortunate reasons for this). Excel exports to html. The result html file display fine in Firefox etc. I then open the file in Emacs and paste into your converter. It seems to work fine...except when entries in the table contain the number zero. The error is easy to reproduce - create a small table in Excel: 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 Export to HTML. Check the file and all elements will be there. Convert, and the resulting wiki code has lost all the cells containing zero: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 will be the result. Is this fixable ?

boy, that was a while ago. But I still occasionally have a need for the converter, so it would be good if it worked. Thanks Gertjan On Thu, Nov 13, 2008 at 8:20 PM, David Iberri via RT < bug-HTML-WikiConverter-MediaWiki@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text
