Tim Allison commented on TIKA-1896:
-----------------------------------
The script element is defined as {{cdata}} by TagSoup. This explains the parse
above.
{noformat}
<element name='script' type='cdata'>
<memberOfAny/>
<attribute name='defer' type='BOOLEAN' />
</element>
{noformat}
If you add a different unclosed (actual) element, say <table>, text is
extracted without problem.
> Invalid closing script tag not handled gracefully by HtmlParser

> Key: TIKA-1896
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1896
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 1.12
> Reporter: Matthew Caruana Galizia
> Attachments: test.html
>
>
> When an HTML file contains an invalid closing script tag, all content after
> that tag is interpreted as script data and therefore ignored.
> Reduced test case file attached.
> To reproduce:
> 1) create a file with the following HTML
> {code:html}
> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
> "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>
> <html>
> <head>
> <script lang="javascript"></script language>
> </head>
> <body>
> <p>This is a test.</p>
> </body>
> </html>
> {code}
> 2) {{java -jar tika-app-1.12.jar -t test.html}}
> Expected result:
> {{This is a test.}}
> What is actually returned:
> Nothing.
