Can we stop Radeditor pasting comments copied from MS Word?

[Troy Clark]

Hi All,

Just noticed that when we copy text from an MS Word (2007) document that has comments inserted that they are appearing as footnotes in the Radeditor.  Example of code below:

<P>The <A>transitional provisions in the <em>Act 2009</em> </A><A id=_anchor_1 language=JavaScript>[b1]</A> (PPS Act) are designed to facilitate a seamless changeover.</P>
<DIV>
<HR align=left SIZE=1 width="33%">

<DIV>
<DIV id=_com_1 language=JavaScript><A></A>
<P> <A>[b1]</A>In hoverfield: < Chapter 9, <em>Act</em> <em>09</em>.> </P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

We have got the radeditor converting <b> and <i> tags to <strong> and <em> and also have the radeditor stripping span, font and inline CSS styles on paste.

Cheers,

Troy

Hello Troy,

I noticed that the provided content is valid HTML content and it does not contain MS Word formatting.
When pasting content from Word or MS Office, RadEditor removes only the MS Word formatting (<o:p> tags, mso- attributes, special MS CSS classes), but it does not strip valid HTML tags.

If you would like you can try to implement the requested functionality yourself by examining the pasted content in the OnClientPasteHtml event of RadEditor and stripping the desired part of it using DOM methods and / or regular expressions.
