Hi Alex, I puzzled about this for a while. Eventually I found this in the docs for XML::Error (http://libxml.rubyforge.org/rdoc/classes/LibXML/XML/Error.html)
> By default, warnings, errors and fatal errors that libxml generates are printed to STDERR via the XML::Error::VERBOSE_HANDLER proc. > To disable this output you can install the quiet handler: > XML::Error.set_handler(&XML::Error::QUIET_HANDLER) > Install your own handler: > XML::Error.set_handler do |error| > puts error.to_s > end > Or remove all handlers: > XML::Error.reset_handler So we've been using something a bit like the second method mentioned above as we are trying to capture some sort of informative error message about what went wrong with the parsing to return the user. Think there are some more examples in the test class for the error handler (tc_error.rb) if you have a look at the source. regards sam 2009/4/23 Alex Wayne <a...@beautifulpixel.com> > I am parsing a whole of imperfectly formed HTML.

Why aren't they actually supressed.
