Abstract

The invention provides for the separation of formatting and content data in a first markup file (e.g., an HTML file) so that a second markup language file (e.g., an XML file) containing the content data and formatting or presentation data file (e.g., an XSL file) can be created. Content data in the first file that is to be converted is tagged. The tagged data may be included in an HTML file. The invention processes the tagged data so that content data is identified and used to generate a file in the second format (e.g., an XML file). The presentation or formatting data is also identified and used to generate the presentation data file (e.g., an XSL file). The invention can be employed to convert the existing data files (e.g., HTML files) into files which are separated into content data files (e.g., XML files) and presentation data files (e.g., XSL files).
