When translating a particular HTML file I hit the Object Reference not set to an instance of an object error reported here: https://github.com/MicrosoftTranslator/DocumentTranslator/issues/52
After getting my environment setup I ran the program in debugging mode and found it was breaking on the line:
if (!DNTList.Contains(child.Name.ToLowerInvariant())) {
It appears a particular element in the document was showing the rootnode.LastChild as a #text element, but that did not appear to exist in the document, so this loop just kept going until child became null, causing the error above when calling child.Name.
This simple change will cause AddNodes to break out of the loop if child is null, and I have verified after making this change it is able to translate the file that was consistently failing for me before.
