Railo has a function called htmlParse() that will "clean up" html into xhtml, but I /think/ it's only a Railo deal.
You can use something like JTidy, or Jericho HTML parser, etc., etc., if you're uncertain of what the input will be, and just need valid output. If you *know* that it will only be elements X, Y and Z that need cleaning, you could do it yourself as part of pre-processing. :Den -- In almost everything, experience is more valuable than precept.
