in thread The mostly used xml parser

Excellent point - using tidy as a preprocessor goes a long way to bridging the gap. It is also interesting to note that there is a tidy.pm available, although the Active State ppm install of it doesn't manage to hook the documentation into Active State's Perl documentation :(.


Perl is Huffman encoded by design.

    It must be from HTML::Tidy, which is an HTML checker: it doesn't return the XHTML generated by tidy, just the error messages.

    I could provide a sortcut for using tidy (or xmllint, which can do the same thing) though, provided it is either in the path or you give the path to the executable. I'll add this to the next version, thanks for the idea.
