Good morning Gary and all:

        I'm not sure if this following words are of topic...excuse me if
yes ! : 

        I don't remember knowing about .mht file format to save web site pages.
But when I need to do that I use .html file format that give us a only
one file of the web page with all sourse of it as links for example.

Regards,

Jorge Rodríguez

Tom, 
That's a good suggestion, perhaps I should have thought of it. I will give it a go. In general, I 
use MS because it has been the only one I know capable of handling .mht files, and I save web 
pages using that format because I find it *much* more convenient to have the page saved in a 
single file, rather than as a file plus a folder. Perhaps other browsers can now open these files 
now? I don't know, I haven't got around to checking recently. You know how it is, you find 
something that works for you and just stick with it - kind of inertia.
I had a reply privately from Brian, though, which suggested that it might be due to the type of 
formatting used in the .css - using "vertical-align", and if so, that LO probably wouldn't 
recognise it. I checked the file in a text editor and that is indeed how the superscripting is 
generated in these pages. 
I have since found a workaround which is not the most convenient but will at least allow me to 
get done what I need to get done.
best,/Gary

Hi :)  So Microsoft's Internet Explorer only plays well with Microsoft Office?  Err, is there any 
surprise there?  
Have you tried with other web-browsers?  Internet Explorer often seems to be a pos imo and ime.  
Each release of it seems to have a load of different 'issues' handling internationally agreed 
standards (yes, Microsoft ARE involved in setting those standards!).  So websites sometimes have 
to write extra code specifically aimed at certain versions of IE.  At best IE seems to behave 
more like a trojan as it's so often found to have remarkable security issues.  MS usually put out 
at least 1 or more security patch per fortnight to deal with some critical problem or other.  
Please, please, please try Chrome, Safari, Opera, or anything else.  Even Firefox's worst 
releases appear to be better than IE.  There are a huge range of web-browsers available for free 
and quite easy to download and install.  
Personally i would probably paste anything off a website as plain-text and then add back the 
formatting myself.  There are a few websites i kinda trust but in general i'd try to avoid 
risking pulling dodgy formatting and what-ever else across into another program/app.  
Sorry for the tone here!  Good luck with all this! Many apols sand regards from Tom :)

 Subject: [libreoffice-users] copying text with formatting from a web page

Hi,
I'm copying some text from a web page (windows explorer) into a Writer doc; the text copies OK, 
but I can't seem to preserve superscripting. I've tried normal, HTML format and formatted text 
[RTF] as paste options; I can get attributes such as colour pasted, but can't seem to get that 
superscript. MS Word OTOH does preserve the superscript attribute, so it must be there on the 
clipboard. Is there a way of coaxing this information into Writer?
Thanks,/Gary
