Fast way to add an article with images

Hello.
I'm looking for the fastest way to let an editor add html pages to the articles sections.
These html pages were saved using MS Word "Save As html(filtered)"
The problem is the images.
msword creates a folder with all kind of images related to the html page.
On each html page there are 5-20 images. And it's ridiculous to ask the editor to upload and add them one by one.

I gave webdav a chance...
After uploading article.html and the article_files folder I've found that ezpublish treats the html as a file object and not as an article. (why?)
Even If I solve this problem. The images are related to "article_files/" e.g <img src="article_files/bump.jpg">

Is there another way to add a html file with images straight into the content system without uploading images one by one ?
Or any way to make ezwebdav add article objects?
Thanks...

Hi,

Take a look at the OpenOffice extension:

I guess it will fit the job perfectly.

Thanks Hans, but that's not my case since I don't use OpenOffice...

I have these word html documents and have no access to their Doc files...

Oree, I think it is not possible... so far at least, unless you write your own import extension :)

But can't you import these HTML archives as OpenOffice documents then use the extension ?
