What I do is to set the htmlText of an off screen field to my input 
variable while the screen is locked then I put the htmlText of that off 
screen field into another variable and unlock the screen. That might 
work for you as a clean up tool. On the other hand if you are 
deliberately working with valid HTML 4.0 then that would not work as a 
fix if your text must remain as HTML 4.0.
