HTML FIX

Jul 12, 2007 7:57AM PDT

I have a CSV file when converted to excel has over 12,000 rows. I want to upload the file to my website but I have a problem with it. A lot of the HTML is incorrect and there are spelling errors in the descriptions. I know I can singly fix each row with an HTML checker and spell check the rest but with 12,000 rows this would be way to time consuming. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way I could just copy and paste the CSV file into a program and validate everything all at once.

If running a spell check on your document is too much work then outsource it.
