Re: HTML Parsing problems...

[Michael Giles]

Yeah, I was using HTMLParser for a few days until I tried to parse a 400K 
document and it spun at 100% CPU for a very long time.  It is tolerant of 
bad HTML, but does not appear to scale.  TagSoup processed the same 
document in a second or less at <25% CPU.

TagSoup is great - however, it is not maintained nor developed (the same 
could be said about JTidy as well, but TagSoup's history is much 
shorter...). I'm using HTMLParser (http://htmlparser.sourceforge.net) for 
my application, and it also works very well, even for ill-formed input. 
It's also very actively developed.
