Migrating from Manila or static html?

I'm trying to migrate a lot of content from a Manila site that was being used as a traditional web site (no blog posts, just static pages). I've written scripts to pull all of the pages out of Manila into static html files, strip the templates, and run them through tidy to clean them up. I'd now like to load them up into Drupal and create rewrites for each of them, so that none of the existing links break. What would be the simplest way to accomplish this? The node_import module looks like it would get me part of the way.

Thanks,

Joe Baker

my databases are begin corrupted somehow

hi.

it seems there is some problem with one of my sites where drupal is corrupting some of the data - it is making "'"s into "’"s as well as mangling other characters. this seems to be happening on a live drupal site during the submitting of new data.

does anybody have any idea why this could be happening?

the strange thing is that it actually looks like it might display ok on the website - but only in some instances.

when I did the upgrade...here are the errors:
