Converting to MP3 - help needed!!

Hmmm, it highlights using Avant.

The easiest way to save (if you must save the whole page) is to select
save or save as, then bring up the .txt extension, rather than the
.htm extension. Then change the page name to something you'll remember
and add ".txt" to the end. Iirc you must do both, change from html to
txt and add .txt to the filename in NS 4.79.

The result will have some table and frame code that must be deleted
manually if tables and frames are present. Otherwise it leaves a
pretty darned clean .txt document, without resorting to a html->txt
program.

I just tried it. In Netscape 4.79, the Save As default is "all files" on
Steve's pages. The pull down option is the same. I see the file as
*.asp, which I change to *.htm and go from there. I don't see "save as
txt".

Comment?

I guess it has been awhile. Try "all files" and name the file
"steve.txt" and see if that doesn't give you straight text.

No joy that way. Normally, of course, no copy problem, just once in
awhile on a particular page.

Thanks for the help, REM.

REM, it was as you described for some pages. I see that certain pages
are coded so Netscape offers the "save as text" option. I tried it,
renamed the file, etc., the saved text file shows O bytes, no content.
Had to do my usual if copy is not available, save as htm, etc.

You might like Pure Text then:

It's very small, no intall, etc. It does a great job with everything
I've tried it on. You must be able to copy the desired text for this
to work though. It pastes into another app in pure text.

Just checked and apparently, the page had uploaded okay, but strangely
vanished (confusing even myself).

Thanks, Steve. It seems to run OK on a CD data file with the extra files
just in the same folder, as I so far did not place a copy of the Lame
file in Windows/System. Maybe results will be different with an actual
music file.

Where does RipWiz save the resulting MP3 file?

Mike,
The default folder is the actual "<Rip Wiz 2003 folder>\Output"
sub-folder, though this can be changed in the settings options.
