html vs htm

W. Watson · Guest

It appears that htm files are associated with MS and have html code that is
not used outside of MS-land. Is that correct? Can one translate the htm
codes to html?

htm and html are the same, just different extensions.

I'm no expert at html, but this looks like the insertion of MS code of some
sort (Mso ...):

<style>
<!--
/* Style Definitions */
p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal
{margin:0in;
margin-bottom:.0001pt;
font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:"Times New Roman";}
p.MsoCaption, li.MsoCaption, div.MsoCaption

That has nothing to do with extensions being htm or html. That's just the
bloat that Word adds to documents.

I have been told the extra code is meant to ease conversion into the MS Doc
file formats.

When you save as a "Web page" in Word, you're not really getting anything
very well designed to be a Web page. You're getting an HTML document that
can be viewed in a browser. The extra code included (unless you save as "Web
page, filtered," and even that is still pretty messy) is intended to permit
the file to be converted back into a Word document, retaining all its
formatting.
