title: Clean Microsoft Word Pasted Text using JavaScript
body: <p>I am using a 'contenteditable' <code>&lt;div/&gt;</code> and enabling PASTE.</p>
  
  <p>It is amazing the amount of markup code that gets pasted in from a clipboard copy from Microsoft Word. I am battling this, and have gotten about 1/2 way there using Prototypes' <code>stripTags()</code> function (<em>which unfortunately does not seem to enable me to keep some tags</em>).</p>
  
  <p>However, even after that, I wind up with a mind-blowing amount of unneeded markup code.</p>
  
  <p>So my question is, is there some function (using JavaScript), or approach I can use that will clean up the majority of this unneeded markup?</p>
