Monks:

I'm using HTML::Table to build—you guessed it—an HTML table, and then incorporate that into XML::Twig.

As soon as I put these two together I see "Wide character in print..." and XML::Twig (apparently) no longer honors output_text_filter.

The code follows, as well as the results explained in the code: 
use warnings;
use strict;
use Encode;
use XML::Twig;
use HTML::Table;

undef $/;
my $html = <DATA>;

my $twig = XML::Twig->new(
    input_filter => sub {
        my $txt = shift;
        return decode('Windows-1252', $txt);
    },
    output_text_filter => 'safe_hex',
    pretty_print => 'indented',
    twig_print_outside_roots => 1,
    twig_roots => {
        'h1' => sub {
            ### If 1:
            ###  - "Wide character in print..."
            ###  - TM is *not* converted to &#x2122; by output_text_fi
+lter
            ### If 0:
            ###  - No character complaints
            ###  - TM *is* converted
            if (1) {
                my $new_elt = XML::Twig::Elt->new('div');
                my $table = HTML::Table->new([[1,2]]);
                $new_elt->set_inner_html($table->getTable());
                $new_elt->paste(before => $_);
            }
            $_->flush();
        }
    },

);
$twig->parse_html($html);

Q: Why don't I/How can I get: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?><html><head></head><body>
    
  <div>
    <table>
      <tbody>
        <tr>
          <td>1</td>
          <td>2</td>
        </tr>
      </tbody>
    </table>
  </div>
  <h1>Such and Such&#x2122;</h1>
</body>

Thanks, this had been puzzling me all afternoon!
