I know this is a super old post, but I hope someone is still reading it.
Here's my situation:

My client creates events in her CMS. The event description field is a WYSIWYG 
editor (tinyMCE, not that it matters). She writes her event description in MS 
Word and then pastes it into the WYSIWYG editor. She won't use the paste as 
plain text option because she wants to maintain the formatting she worked so 
hard on in Word. :p

We set up an .ics attachment much like the one described here. It works fine. 
The problem is, pasting Word into the WYSIWYG also pastes in all the Microsoft 
crap formatting. When the .ics is opened the formatting is displaying as text 
in the event summary box.

We've tried regex to strip it, but it won't get it all. And even if the regex 
managed to get all the crap formatting, my client would be upset because ALL of 
the formatting would be gone.

Has anyone ran into this issue before or have any ideas on how we can fix it?
Thanks in advance!
