Changing the romanization scheme so that it does not use special consonants
is no problem. Vowels is a problem though. I need the ogonek (nasal hook)
on accented and unaccented <i> <e> <a> <u>. AFAIK, HTML cannot render these
at all.

I'm almost entirely HTML illiterate, I'm afraid. What I was thinking of
doing was simply saving my Word documents as HTML. Of course, there is
no guarantee that this is 100% safe.

Come to think of it, the safest conversion that I know of is PDF. The
Acrobat Reader is free for download and once installed can be used
together with a browser.

Yeah, I think I'll convert all my documents into PDF and put it up in the
web! All I have to get now is the conversion program, Adobe Acrobat, which
unfortunately is not free. I've been meaning to do this ages ago, but, being
the stingy person that I am, never had the heart to buy Adobe Acrobat. It is
about time I do so now -- cost what it may.

I like the webpage name already. But with regards to "when", I'll have
to get back to you on that one. First thing is first, I have to get my
hands on Adobe Acrobat. Then I have to make sure that the conversion of
my word documents go smoothly.
