There is a bug in hparser.c [line 519] irt the handling of HTML comments.
518 if (s < end) {
519 s = token_pos.end + 2;
520 goto LOCATE_END;
On line 519, we are looking for the end of an html comment '-->' and
incrementing by 2, when it should be incrementing by 1. This bug comes to
life when there is an odd number of '-' characters in an html comment.
line 519 should be:
s = token_pos.end + 1 ;
I patched it on my distribution and it is correct.
Gisle,
why did $p->decode_text_entities go away in release 2.99_15?
I don't agree that html entities should be autmatically decoded; this
should be up to the programmer and application of HTML::TokeParser. I
personally had to comment out the code for your HTML decoding for my
application :) It would be great if you would put it back in; thoughts?
