Hi,

Someone reported a bug into Malone, the Ubuntu bug tracker. Seems that this
problem doesn't only concern Ubuntu.

"
HTML files saved from OpenOffice are invalid.

To reproduce
1) Write a document in OpenOffice.org writer
Create a table, and insert a picture.
2) File: Save as:, File Type: HTML Document (OpenOffice.org Writer)
3) Validate the document in http://validator.w3.org

What should happen:
It should validate, as it claims to be HTML.

What actually happens:
Validation fails.

I created a test page in Dapper Flight 6 and openoffice.org-writer
2.0.2-2ubuntu1, but this bug is also present in Dapper. I find it suprising that
OpenOffice can't save HTML, as its native save format is XML-based.

Thanks

confirmed; Writer doesn't create valid HTML; even though this can be considered 
a defect I leave this as an enhancement (it is not unreasonable to enhance the 
HTML output so that it conforms) and according to
http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/workflowcharts/RFE_issues_by_QA.sxd
I reassign this issue to requirements and set the status to New
