Here's a simplified example of the HTML I'm trying to parse: <p> <span id="data"> <p>important information</p> </span> </p> And here's what I get out of...
Tagsoup is right, you're wrong. You can't have block elements such as <p> inside inline elements such as <span>; tagsoup fixes this problem for you. - Godmar...

I understand, and that's what I suspected. In this case I'm not interested in correcting the HTML, I simply want to access the contents of the SPAN with id of...
... In order to do that, you have to change the HTML grammar in src/definitions/html.tssl to specify a different language. The simplest way to do that is...
Hey, Thanks for some great software! I'm having some trouble with manipulating HTML by parsing it with tagsoup into a DOM and then writing it again. The main...
... I may at some future date give the table and form elements a content model of M_ANY, since people are quite good about providing the end tags for them. ......
Hi, I did just that - allowed M_ANY within table and tr, and that fixed my problem. Maybe tagsoup should be distributed with such a "relaxed" schema in the...
... No. TagSoup interprets entity references on iput, but does not regenerate them on output. But if you set the output encoding to something other than...
I feel like I've seen this discussed at some point in the past 5 years, but I can't remember or find the answer. If an HTML page has an ampersand in the text,...

Hi all, What is the best way to unit test the parser methods like startElement(), endElement(), ... one at a time, and by starting from reading an XML file...
... You got me there. Parsing is inherently a tightly coupled group of behaviors, since everything depends on building up a rather complex and varying state. ...
... Almost by definition unit testing doesn't read files. Passing your own arguments is the right way to *unit* test. That said, it is important to test with...

Thank you for your answer. Your proposal tends to indicate that we need to go for an intrusive solution in which we modify the real code to throw exceptions...

With TSaxon the -H switch allows one to process (ill formed) HTML files when they are the source. What about when the source file is XML and you're trying to...
... I don't know any way to do that. The -H switch is just shorthand for the Saxon switch '-x org.ccil.cowan.tagsoup.Parser', and that affects both the main...

As a followup: I ended up having to pass the output from tagSoup v1.2 into a build of htmlTidy in order to get it to parse in TinyXML for certain html samples...
