There are better ways to get xhtml out of a Word document, such as atlantis Word Processor or Writer2ePub with Open Office.

Actually, Charleski (as I agree with Toxaris that the likelihood of the OP ever reappearing is slim), we have
not been happy with any html we get out of OO, even though most of us use it, generally speaking, in accompaniment to Word, etc. (Word has a bug that prevents us from using it to format POD PDF files, humorously, so we have to export a finalled book to OO in order to print the damn thing to PDF). We've tried several varieties of exporting to html, and we've been seriously underwhelmed with them all; as much as we dislike the html that Word outputs, even filtered, it frankly seems easier to clean than what we get from OO (and their XML output isn't anything to write home about, either, which is disappointing). It interests me that I see you recommending this flavor all the time, when our own experiences with it have been quite the opposite...
JMHO, FWIW.
