> A more accurate facility for detecting Charset Encoding of HTML documents

> Key: TIKA-2038
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2038
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core, detector

>
> Currently, Tika uses icu4j for detecting charset encoding of HTML documents
> as well as the other naturally text documents. But the accuracy of encoding
> detector tools, including icu4j, in dealing with the HTML documents is
> meaningfully less than from which the other text documents. Hence, in our
> project I developed a library that works pretty well for HTML documents,
> which is available here: https://github.com/shabanali-faghani/IUST-HTMLCharDet
> Since Tika is widely used with and within some of other Apache stuffs such as
> Nutch, Lucene, Solr, etc. and these projects are strongly in connection with
> the HTML documents, it seems that having such an facility in Tika also will
> help them to become more accurate.
