Currently TagSoup's behavior about entity references is as follows. If an entity is recognized by the schema, such as , it is turned into a single...

I just got an off-list request to add support for HTML comments through the LexicalHandler interface. I wonder if anyone else thinks this feature is useful. ...

I'm not sure about JTidy, but the exe version of Tidy has an option - I just tried this : <center>text</center> Checking the "Output as XHTML" and "Replace...
