Hi, do you have any documentation on what the Cleanup HTML button does?
I've just done a test and it doesn't appear to do much? And I can't see any settings in the plugin params in the profile.
Thanks

This basically gets the content from the editor, then sets the content back into the editor, after running it through the standard parsing, cleanup and serialization routines. Essentially the same as clicking the Code tab, then back to the Editor tab.

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.
I see, thank you. I think I was hoping for something similar to the clean-up on the paste options. I have just been given a very messy site to sort out. I think the best option would be to set the paste options as they have great params then go through each page and cut and paste the content.

Intersting idea. Something for JCE 3 then.
