Great idea, but I'm not sure that these tags will always be in the same
order. (i.e. <div><font><span>). I used this HTML::TreeBuilder class
to remove empty tags, which is a solid alternative to what you wrote
above. But I still can't remove these tags outright, just because they
might be important depending on the spacing properties of these mystery
styles. I did some research this morning on the Microsoft CSS class,
MsoNormal, which if the newsgroups are correct, is supposed to make a
newline meaningless. So i guess the real trick it to remove all
MsoNormal tags, then do what you did above with the &nbsp; -> <br>.

Thanks!
