Hi, Tobias,

> is there a possibility to parse HTML to Wiki Markup with Text_Wiki?


Not with Text_Wiki itself, as things are now, unless you want to write
(1) a rule parser set for HTML, and (2) a rule renderer set that
converts the Text_Wiki internal meta-format to Wiki. Sorry. :-(

However, it is very possible to write a standalone script of custom
regexes to convert HTML documents. I have done so myself, and while it
is *very* limited, it helps with simple HTML pages. Email me off-list
if you're interested in seeing the (very rudimentary) code for this.

Maybe you can offer that little snippet on your website, since it'd be
quite usefull! :)

I imagine it would be fairly simple to do it using Tidy.
