unstyler

"Paste from Word" as a library

unstyler.js

So, that point in your project comes, and you need to handle copy & paste from Microsoft Word. At first, it looks great... and then you look at the HTML!

This library is an alternative to using a mature WYSIWYG editor that incorporates "Paste from Word".

Dependencies

None. :-)

How to Use

var goodHtml = unstyle(uglyWordHtml);

You might want to use it with JQuery in a paste handler:

$('textarea#text').on('paste', function(e) {
  e.preventDefault();
  var clipboard = e.originalEvent.clipboardData;
  var html = clipboard.getData("text/html") || clipboard.getData("text/plain");
  $(e.target).val(unstyle(html));
});

Yes, it works for contentEditable too:

$('div#html').on('paste', function(e) {
  e.preventDefault();
  var clipboard = e.originalEvent.clipboardData;
  var html = clipboard.getData("text/html") || clipboard.getData("text/plain");
  $(e.target).html(unstyle(html));
});
