Hi, I am using a program that is ultra paranoid about start and end html
tags.
For example
<p>This is a test
<br>A new line
The above code causes the program to fail
<p>This is a test</p>
<br>A new line</br>
The above code works fine.
Does anyone have a short routine that looks for a start HTML tag and if a
matching end tag does not exist inserts an end tag? I could write one myself
but rather than reinventing the wheel and all that ;)
Thanks in advance

Hi Mark,
If you look for a simple solution, you could then use Microsoft IE's HTML
parser which is pretty smart in dealing with non-closed tags. I'd also say
such a routine won't be short as the parser should keep track of each
non-closed tag and its context to suggest proper closing tags in proper
places.

if you need to work with existing html then consider using tidycom or the c#
wrapper for it ( http://www.mattstan.pwp.blueyonder.c...y/tidycs.html),
if you're manipulating existing html then use the dom exposed by mshtml, if
you're creating html from scratch, then just use an xml dom.

I am trying to use HTML::Parser to parse an HTML file, remove all HTML tags
(including comments, etc.), replace all ENTITIES (e.g. &), and put the
result into a variable as a string. I figure HTML::Parser itself can
somehow preform the filtering, but how do I get it back as a string? I'd
appreciate some sample code if anyone has any. Sorry if this is a real n00b
question.
Thanks a lot,
Mitchua

Hello,
I am using HTML::Parser to extract text from html pages from
http://bbc.co.uk/urdu/
However the encoding of the input text seems to change to some
unknown encoding in the output.
The program is given below. The HTML is in a string to keep the
example simple. The same problem appears with HTML in a file.

Hello,
I am trying to pinpoint an apparent bug in HTML::Parser. The
encoding of the text seems to change incorrectly if the locale isn't
set properly.
However Parser.pm in the directory
(/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/HTML/)
doesn't seem to contain the "real" parsing statements.

Hi
I am fairly familiar in C but not much.
I want to know how I can write a html parser in C that only parses for
the image file in the html file and display or print
all the images found in the html file.
How to go about it?

Hi,
I am parsing html documents using the html parser from libxml2, and if
the encoding is included in the document it works perfectly but if it
is not, I think it does not work well (probably because I am doing
something wrong).
As it is said in http://xmlsoft.org/encoding.html the parser should
detect the encoding. So I tested it putting an utf-8 word in a file and
it does not detect it (it generates a wrong string). Example:

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
