(If using firefox, you can highlight part or all of a webpage, right click and "view selection source". That opens a new tab with the html. Paste it in here and it's all formatted for you. Caveat; Sometimes it will leave the first and last html tag out. Also, some sites/systems will add a whole bunch of extra stuff like div and span tags and css classes that won't work here so always preview. Sometimes it's not worth the effort to simplify the html. Quicker to start from scratch. I didn't have to do anything with this html though.)
