This free tool converts text into a valid HTML document. Students, freelance writers, and other professionals can transform their written content (essays, research papers, articles, dissertations, emails, online publications, etc.) into clean HTML format.
Instructions
1. Enter your text into the "TEXT TO CONVERT" form.
2. Choose your options and click on the "CONVERT TO HTML" button.
The HTML document will be pasted into the "RESULT (TEXT CONVERTED TO HTML)" form. To have full understanding of the tool, feel free to read the "Tips and Notes" section on the bottom of this page.
Tips and Notes
- The submitted content is NOT saved in our database (the script relies 100% on your local web browser's Javascript).
- A single line break is converted into a <br> tag; a double (or more) line break is converted into a <p> (paragraph) tag.
- The converter tries to remove invalid characters and replace multiple line breaks, spaces, or tabs into a single one.
- You may choose to add a single line break after a paragraph (it may be useful depending on margins applied to a default CSS paragraph tag).
- By default, script replaces all curly quotation marks / apostrophes (called "Smart Quotes"), MS Word em dashes, and ellipses to HTML-valid ones.
- You may create a W3C valid HTML document from your content; don't forget to change: PAGE_TITLE, PAGE_DESCRIPTION, H1_PAGE_HEADER_TITLE to your own.
- If the language of your web page is not English, edit the HTML language attribute: <html lang="en"> to the proper language, eg. <html lang="fr"> etc.
- To test the tool, click on the "Insert Sample Text" button and submit the form (it will automatically expand to the full height of the transformed content).
- You can edit the generated HTML page directly within the RESULT area to perfect it before publishing.
- If you edit content within the RESULT text area and try to submit the form again, you will be warned that any changes made in that area will be lost; we suggest that you change content in the TEXT TO CONVERT form only.
- To copy the generated HTML document, right-click within the RESULT (blue background) area, choose "Select All" from the menu, and copy the highlighted text.
