A friend expressed a need to me today to be able to quickly and easily convert a plain text report, a job listing, to basic HTML. Basically, this is extremely easy to do for those of us who have an extensive tool bag to draw from, but for an administrator who needs to do this manually on a semi-frequent basis, it's a bit of a challenge. To help him out, I've created this simple HTMLify function in JavaScript. The function is presented below, and the code will be in a followup posting. Enjoy! To use this function, paste your text listing into the box below, and then click the button. The contents of the text box will be converted to HTML format that you can then copy and paste for use back in your own software.
