title: Cleanup old database full of html tags
body: <p>I'm moving my client's old mysql database to a new wordpress system (the old one was also wp), and i've noticed his articles are all saved with tons and tons of HTML <code>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</code> tags full of different stylings due to importing content directly from MS Word. I've already convinced the client to use Paste From Word and clean up after his articles before saving new ones. </p>
  
  <p>Now, is there any safe way to remove all of the already saved tags <code>&lt;p style="different_styles_every_time"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</code> without leaving trash behind and hopefully keeping the original line breaks?</p>
  
  <p>I've started researching on regex, but lots of answers here advise against using it to parse HTML, though. Any clues?</p>
