             Summary: parse-html to support HTML5 charset definitions
                 Key: NUTCH-1733
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1733
             Project: Nutch
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: parser
    Affects Versions: 2.2.1, 1.8
            Reporter: Sebastian Nagel
             Fix For: 2.3, 1.9


HTML 5 allows to specify the character encoding of a page per
* {{<meta charset="...">}}
* Unicode Byte Order Mark (BOM)

These are allowed in addition to previous HTTP/http-equiv Content-Type, see 
[[1|http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-html5-diff-20110405/#character-encoding]].

Parse-html ignores both meta charset and BOM, falls back to the default 
encoding (cp1252). Parse-tika sets the encoding appropriately.
