FrameMaker::FromHTML 0.03

FrameMaker::FromHTML is a Perl class to convert HTML file to FrameMaker MIF.

SYNOPSIS

use base FrameMaker::FromHTML;

use strict;

my ($infile, $outfile);

$infile = shift;

($outfile = $infile) =~ s/.htm[l]*$/.mif/;

# Insert routine to validate HTML -- eg, use HTML-Tidy

# VERY important -- this script is fragile at any time

# but worse with bad HTML

my $p = FrameMaker::FromHTML->new($outfile) ;

$p->parse_file("$tempfile") or die "Parsing failed on $tempfile: $!n";

Use to convert properly formed HTML into FrameMaker MIF. Likely to be found buggy, particularly with funny HTML. Errors in MIF are usually flagged in FrameMaker console when FrameMaker is used to open the file.

See example file htmltofm.pl, which may be all youll need to get it working on some files. In which case, youll need to have HTML-Tidy installed to clean up your HTML.
