Question: I have existing html pages and would like to convert them into TWiki pages. But much of the html tags are not properly recognized after I cut/past the html source into a TWiki page. Is there a way to do this or is this a limitation of TWiki? The html pages were created via mozilla's Composer.

Thanks.

Answer

Most HTML works just fine. Watch out for this:

Copy only content between <body> and </body> excluding the body tags.
Tags may not span more then one line, e.g. <sometag par1="val1" par2="val2" par3="val3"> needs to be on the same line. Concatenate lines if necessary.

Please note that it is better to use the TextFormattingRules then HTML since it is easier to maintain in TWiki, easier learn, easier to grasp for users who do not know HTML.
