Hi, I am having problems with the parser not recognizing the end of comments. It seems that at line 496 through line 526 of hparser.c the end of comment recognizer will fail until it sees an even number of '-' chars before the '\s*>' ending sequence. Here is a small html example: <html><body> This is text 1 <!---spacer cell ----> This is text 2 <!-- spacer cell --> This is text 3 <!---spacer cell --> This is text 4 <!---spacer cell -----> This is text 5 <!-- spacer cell --> This is text 6 <!-- spacer cell ---> This is text 7 <!-- spacer cell --> </body></html> I have a test parser using HTML::TokeParser to just drop comments and I get the following when I run this html through it: Content-Length: 286 Content-Type: text/html Last-Modified: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 01:02:25 GMT Client-Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 01:04:37 GMT response base = file:./comments.html <html><body > This is text 1 This is text 2 This is text 3 This is text 4 This is text 6 </body></html> As you can see the '5' text and the '7' text have been removed via the run on comments. I would try to provide a fix in the hparser.c code, but I do not know enough about how the token buffer routines work to test end with a look ahead. Thanks, BTW, this is a great tool and I love it! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (408)543-6451 Craig Shaver, Productivity Group POB 60458 Sunnyvale, CA 94088 (650)390-0654 http://www.progroup.com/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
