What is HTML Washer?

HTML Washer is a free online tool for normalizing HTML or removing selected elements, attributes, and styling. It accepts pasted HTML, uploaded files, page URLs, formatted text, and Word documents (.docx).

Features

  • Convert Word documents to HTML — upload a .docx file, select a cleanup preset, and copy or download the result
  • Process existing HTML — paste markup or upload a file, then choose which elements and attributes to retain
  • Normalize without sanitizing — use Correct only to repair malformed markup without applying a cleanup preset
  • Use without an account — the online tool is free and requires no signup

Use cases

  • Convert a Word document — upload a .docx file and process the converted HTML with a selected preset
  • Prepare content for a redesign — reduce markup retained from an older site before moving the content
  • Simplify imported content — remove unwanted formatting from HTML supplied by another editor or application

Audience

  • Software developers — normalizing or reducing HTML before another processing step
  • Website maintainers — reviewing and simplifying markup from existing pages
  • Content editors — converting Word documents or formatted text to HTML for a content management system
  • Template authors — reducing source markup before adapting it to a template
