Hi All,

I just received a file from someone laoded with these tags o:p okay it comes
up as a smiley but I mean <letter o : letter p>. There is an open and closed
component <o:p> </o:p>
What is that? I have never seen it before and not finding it in google either.
See the bottom I attache it as code sometimes it just reapeats them several
times are they some kind of spacing code?
Thanks
Rose

<o:p> or </o:p>

It's Office-specific markup. The page was created in Word or something.

Hello,
Those are XML namespace tags usually found in an MS Word or other Office
document.
Imported or cut/pasted text from Word is often littered with formatting tags
like <P class=MsoNormal> and <o:p></o:p>.

Dreamweaver's Clean Up Word HTML function may help. I would make a backup of
the page and try it on that first just to see what it does.

Take care,
Tim
