Thank you very much Jojo (what name should I use?) for your advice.
I have done several tests with the WebBudget trial version until it showed a
message error "0/3 error 133" when I pressed the count button (or when I
tried to quit the programme). Well, I guess I have done something wrong.
In the CATMT mailing list (egroups), some suggested Berlitz's Trans Web
Express or HTMLQA (Translation Craft).
Any other ideas welcome...
Alexandra.
