convert HTML2TEXT

Hi,

I have got a HTML-file with encoded special chars (ä, ß, ...). I want to decode all these chars into their coresponding letter (ä, ß, ...). I could do this with find&replace with each single character.

I have found the icon TEXT2HTML in the HTML-symbol bar. But I need the exact opposite. How to do this with ALL special chars in ONE SWEEP? Macro?

I use for this task a macro with macro property Continue if a Find with Replace not found enabled.

IfExtIs "html"
Else
IfExtIs "htm"
Else
ExitMacro
EndIf
EndIf
InsertMode
ColumnModeOff
HexOff
IfSel
Find MatchCase "ä"
Replace All SelectText "ä"
Find MatchCase "ö"
Replace All SelectText "ö"
Find MatchCase "ü"
Replace All SelectText "ü"
Find MatchCase "Ä"
Replace All SelectText "Ä"
Find MatchCase "Ö"
Replace All SelectText "Ö"
Find MatchCase "Ü"
Replace All SelectText "Ü"
Find MatchCase "ß"
Replace All SelectText "ß"
Find MatchCase "€"
Replace All SelectText "€"
Else
Find MatchCase "ä"
Replace All "ä"
Find MatchCase "ö"
Replace All "ö"
Find MatchCase "ü"
Replace All "ü"
Find MatchCase "Ä"
Replace All "Ä"
Find MatchCase "Ö"
Replace All "Ö"
Find MatchCase "Ü"
Replace All "Ü"
Find MatchCase "ß"
Replace All "ß"
Find MatchCase "€"
Replace All "€"
EndIf

Danke Mofi,

I cut some part of the Macro to make it available for all file-types and added some special characters.

Runs perfect!

The reverse HTML2TEXT function is a GOOD idea. Send a suggestion to IDM using the methods in the forum header...
