In word do:
File -> Save as.. -> Type name and select webpage (*.htm,*.html) in the extension menu.

This is the only way to convert .doc to .html. Microsoft is very protective about there fileformats.
(well you could get a morgage and buy the microsoft SDK..)

I strongly advise you to NOT use Word as a tool to create web pages. The Microsoft HTML conversion utility generates horrible code.

Kings,

I asked a similar question in this forum before I saw your post. I've been doing some additional research since I posted and found a PHP script that is suppose to convert word docs to HTML automatically with the help of free program called "wvWare".

The script is located here: http://instruform.com/wordconv.phps

wvWare is located here: http://wvware.sourceforge.net/

Now I don't have any idea if these will work, but will be looking into them further for my own purposes. I hope this helps.

Good luck!

Yproc
