StackOverflowError when page includes another <body> part in <noframes> #50

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
- ArticleExtractor cannot process a web page having two <body> parts (like the 
attached page) and results "java.lang.StackOverflowError". 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
- "noframes" part is for browsers that do not support frames, so boilerpipe 
should not take this part into consideration.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
- boilerpipe 1.2.0 on Linux/Windows

Thanks for reporting.

This seems to be caused by a bug in NekoHTML 1.9.13

The corresponding stacktrace points at 
"org.cyberneko.html.HTMLTagBalancer.endElement(HTMLTagBalancer.java:1003)"

The problem seems to go away after an update to NekoHTML 1.9.15.
Could you please confirm this?

Before upgrading boilerpipe to NekoHTML 1.9.15, I will have to perform some 
extra checks, especially to ensure we don't get any regressions in terms of 
extraction quality.

Best,
Christian

Thanks for quick-response.

As you've stated, the problem has gone away with NekoHTML 1.9.15. 

Below is the list of changes in NekoHTML since ver.1.9.13 (which has been 
released on 2 Sept 2009):
- Version 1.9.15 (3 Aug 2011)
    Avoid using a synchronized structure (here java.util.Properties) to store built-in entities that are loaded at startup (#3001745), change INS to inline element, change BUTTON to inline element. don't parse body of IFRAME, add new feature http://cyberneko.org/html/features/scanner/allow-selfclosing-iframe to allow empty IFRAME tags (default is false), make detected encoding available as Locator2.getEncoding() (#3381270). 
- Version 1.9.14 (2 Feb 2010)
    Don't parse body of NOFRAMES (fixes StackOverflowError reported in #2854697), TABLE can have multiple THEAD, TBODY and TFOOT (patch provided by Ahmed Ashour, #2893796), trim encoding found in meta tag (#2904817), fix ArrayIndexOutOfBoundException on empty attribute when using feature normalize-attrs(#2838901), recognize tags even if the > of the opening tag is missing (#2886227), only end TABLE can close a table (#2913095), fix StackOverflowError when parsing document fragment (#2911449), fix NullPointerException occurring with the insert-namespaces feature (#2942363). 

I'm not pretty sure but I guess these changes do not affect the BoilerPipe's 
extraction quality.

Looking forward to hearing about the result of your regression tests.

Regards,
Gural
