Bad xml format in html output from Web API #33

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

• What steps will reproduce the problem?
Get an html or htmlFragment from any page

• What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The output have an xml declaration, but instead of a valid html/xml structure 
there are extra tags that break the xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<meta …/>
<base … />
<html>
  <body>
    ...
  </body>
</html>

And in the <html> the style comes directly after the <html> and not in a <head>.

The correct output would be:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta …/>
    <base … />
    <style>...</style>
  </head>
  <body>
    ...
  </body>
</html>

• What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

The Web API http://boilerpipe-web.appspot.com/extract

And thanks for this great *GREAT* tool!!!

Hi François,

thanks for pointing this out.

The addition of meta and base was a deliberate decision (it was just easier to 
append it in front of the highlighted HTML). Nevertheless, it is worth fixing.

Cheers,
Christian
