2008-11-24   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.59

     Restore perl-5.6 compatibility for HTML::HeadParser.

     Improved META.yml



_______________________________________________________________________________
2008-11-17   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.58

     Suppress "Parsing of undecoded UTF-8 will give garbage" warning
     with attr_encoded [RT#29089]

     HTML::HeadParser:
       - Recognize the Unicode BOM in utf8_mode as well [RT#27522]
       - Avoid ending up with '/' keys attribute in Link headers.



_______________________________________________________________________________
2008-11-16   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.57

     The <iframe> element content is now parsed in literal mode.

     Parsing of <script> and <style> content ends on the first end tag
     even when that tag was in a quoted string.  That seems to be the
     behaviour of all modern browsers.

     Implement backquote() attribute as requested by Alex Kapranoff.

     Test and documentation tweaks from Alex Kapranoff.



_______________________________________________________________________________
2007-01-12   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.56

     Cloning of parser state for compatibility with threads.
     Fixed by Bo Lindbergh <blgl@hagernas.com>.

     Don't require whitespace between declaration tokens.
     <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20864>



_______________________________________________________________________________
2006-07-10   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.55

     Treat <> at the end of document as text.  Used to be
     reported as a comment.

     Improved Firefox compatibility for bad HTML:
      - Unclosed <script>, <style> are now treated as empty tags.
      - Unclosed <textarea>, <xmp> and <plaintext> treat rest as text.
      - Unclosed <title> closes at next tag.

     Make <!a'b> a comment by itself.



_______________________________________________________________________________
2006-04-28   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.54

     Yaakov Belch discovered yet another issue with <script> parsing.
     Enabling of 'empty_element_tags' got the parser confused
     if it found such a tag for elements that are normally parsed
     in literal mode.  Of these <script src="..."/> is the only
     one likely to be found in documents.
     <http://rt.cpan.org//Ticket/Display.html?id=18965>



_______________________________________________________________________________
2006-04-27   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.53

     When ignore_element was enabled it got confused if the
     corresponding tags did not nest properly; the end tag
     was treated it as if it was a start tag.
     Found and fixed by Yaakov Belch <code@yaakovnet.net>.
     <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=18936>



_______________________________________________________________________________
2006-04-26   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.52

     Make sure the 'start_document' fires exactly once for
     each document parsed.  For earlier releases it did not
     fire at all for empty documents and could fire multiple
     times if parse was called with empty chunks.

     Documentation tweaks and typo fixes.



_______________________________________________________________________________
2006-03-22   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.51

     Named entities outside the Latin-1 range are now only expanded
     when properly terminated with ";".  This makes HTML::Parser
     compatible with Firefox/Konqueror/MSIE when it comes to how these
     entities are expanded in attribute values.  Firefox does expand
     unterminated non-Latin-1 entities in plain text, so here
     HTML::Parser only stays compatible with Konqueror/MSIE.
     Fixes <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=17962>.

     Fixed some documentation typos spotted by <william@knowmad.com>.
     <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=18062>



_______________________________________________________________________________
2006-02-14   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.50

     The 3.49 release didn't compile with VC++ because it mixed code
     and declarations.  Fixed by Steve Hay <steve.hay@uk.radan.com>.



_______________________________________________________________________________
2006-02-08   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.49

     Events could sometimes still fire after a handler has signaled eof.

     Marked_sections with text ending in square bracket parsed wrong.
     Fix provided by <paul.bijnens@xplanation.com>.
     <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=16749>



_______________________________________________________________________________
2005-12-02   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.48

     Enabling empty_element_tags by default for HTML::TokeParser
     was a mistake.  Reverted that change.
     <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=16164>

     When processing a document with "marked_sections => 1", the
     skipped text missed the first 3 bytes "<![".
     <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=16207>



2005-11-22   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.47

     Added empty_element_tags and xml_pic configuration
     options.  These make it possible to enable these XML
     features without enabling the full XML-mode.

     The empty_element_tags is enabled by default for
     HTML::TokeParser.



2005-10-24   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.46
     
     Don't try to treat an literal   as space.
     This breaks Unicode parsing.
     <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=15068>

     The unbroken_text option is now on by default
     for HTML::TokeParser.

     HTML::Entities::encode will now encode "'" by default.

     Improved report/ignore_tags documentation by
     Norbert Kiesel <nkiesel@tbdnetworks.com>.

     Test suite now use Test::More, by
     Norbert Kiesel <nkiesel@tbdnetworks.com>.

     Fix HTML::Entities typo spotted by
     Stefan Funke <bundy@adm.arcor.net>.

     Faster load time with XSLoader (perl-5.6 or better now required).

     Fixed POD markup errors in some of the modules.



2005-01-06   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.45

     Fix stack memory leak caused by missing PUTBACK.  Only
     code that used $p->parse(\&cb) form was affected.
     Fix provided by Gurusamy Sarathy <gsar@sophos.com>.



2004-12-28   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.44

     Fix confusion about nested quotes in <script> and <style> text.



2004-12-06   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.43

     The SvUTF8 flag was not propagated correctly when replacing
     unterminated entities.

     Fixed test failure because of missing binmode on Windows.



2004-12-04   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.42

     Avoid sv_catpvn_utf8_upgrade() as that macro was not
     available in perl-5.8.0.
     Patch by Reed Russell <Russell.Reed@acxiom.com>.

     Add casts to suppress compilation warnings for char/U8
     mismatches.

     HTML::HeadParser will always push new header values.
     This make sure we never loose old header values.



2004-11-30   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.41

     Fix unresolved symbol error with perl-5.005.



2004-11-29   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.40

     Make utf8_mode only available on perl-5.8 or better.  It produced
     garbage with older versions of perl.

     Emit warning if entities are decoded and something in the first
     chunk looks like hi-bit UTF-8.  Previously this warning was only
     triggered for documents with BOM.



2004-11-23   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.39_92

     More documentation of the Unicode issues.  Moved around HTML::Parser
     documentation a bit.

     New boolean option; $p->utf8_mode to allow parsing of raw  UTF-8.

     Documented that HTML::Entities::decode_entities() can take multiple
     arguments.

     Unterminated entities are now decoded in text (compatibility
     with MSIE misfeature).

     Document HTML::Entities::_decode_entities(); this variation of the
     decode_entities() function has been available for a long time, but
     have not been documented until now.

     HTML::Entities::_decode_entities() can now be told to try to
     expand unterminated entities.

     Simplified Makefile.PL



2004-11-23   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.39_91

     The HTML::HeadParser will skip Unicode BOM.  Previously it
     would consider the <head> section done when it saw the BOM.

     The parser will look for Unicode BOM and give appropriate
     warnings if the form found indicate trouble.

     If no matching end tag is found for <script>, <style>, <xmp>
     <title>, <textarea> then generate one where the next tag
     starts.

     For <script> and <style> recognize quoted strings and don't
     consider end element if the corresponding end tag is found
     inside such a string.



2004-11-17   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.39_90

     The <title> element is now parsed in literal mode, which
     means that other tags are not recognized until </title> has
     been seen.

     Unicode support for perl-5.8 and better.

        Decoding Unicode entities always enabled; no longer a compile
        time option.

        Propagation of UTF8 state on strings.
        Patch contributed by John Gardiner Myers <jgmyers@proofpoint.com>.

        Calculate offsets and lengths in chars for Unicode strings.

     Fixed link typo in the HTML::TokeParser documentation.



2004-11-11   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.38

     New boolean option; $p->closing_plaintext
     Contributed by Alex Kapranoff <alex@kapranoff.ru>



2004-11-10   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.37

     Improved handling of HTML encoded surrogate pairs and illegally
     encoded Unicode; <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=7785>.
     Patch by John Gardiner Myers <jgmyers@proofpoint.com>.

     Avoid generating bad UTF8 strings when decoding entities
     representing chars beyond #255 in 8-bit strings.  Such bad
     UTF8 sometimes made perl-5.8.5 and older segfault.

     Undocument v2 style subclassing in synopsis section.

     Internal cleanup:

        Make 'gcc -Wall' happier.

        Avoid modification of PVs during parsing of attrspec.
        Another patch by John Gardiner Myers.



2004-04-01   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.36

     Improved MSIE/Mozilla compatibility.  If the same attribute
     name repeats for a start tag, use the first value instead
     of the last.  Patch by Nick Duffek <html-parser@duffek.com>.
     <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=5472>



2003-12-12   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.35

     Documentation fixes by Paul Croome <Paul.Croome@softwareag.com>.

     Removed redundant dSP.



2003-10-27   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.34

     Fix segfault that happened when the parse callback caused
     the stack to get reallocated.  The original bug report was
     <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=217616>



2003-10-14   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.33

     Perl 5.005 or better is now required.  For some reason we get
     a test failure with perl-5.004 and I don't really feel like
     debugging that perl any more.  Details about this failure can
     be found at <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=4065>.

     New HTML::TokeParser method called 'get_phrase'.  It returns
     all current text while ignoring any phrase-level markup.

     The HTML::TokeParser method 'get_text' now expands skipped 
     non-phrase-level tags as a single space.



2003-10-10   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.32

     If the document parsed ended with some kind of unterminated markup,
     then the parser state was not reset properly and this piece of markup
     would show up in the beginning of the next document parsed.
     <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=3954>

     The get_text and get_trimmed_text methods of HTML::TokeParser can
     now take multiple end tags as argument.  Patch by <siegmann@tinbergen.nl>
     at <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=3166>.

     Various documentation tweaks.

     Included another example program: hdump



2003-08-19   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.31

     The -DDEBUGGING fix in 3.30 was not really there :-(



2003-08-17   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.30

     The previous release failed to compile on a -DDEBUGGING perl
     like the one provided by Redhat 9.

     Got rid of references to perl-5.7.

     Further fixes to avoid warnings from Visual C.
     Patch by Steve Hay <steve.hay@uk.radan.com>.



2003-08-14   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.29

     Setting xml_mode now implies strict_names also for end tags.

     Avoid warning from Visual C.  Patch by <gsar@activestate.com>.

     64-bit fix from Doug Larrick <doug@ties.org>
     http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=195500

     Try to parse similar to Mozilla/MSIE in certain edge cases.
     All these are outside of the official definition of HTML but
     HTML spam often tries to take advantage of these.

       - New configuration attribute 'strict_end'.  Unless enabled
         we will allow end tags to contain extra words or stuff
         that look like attributes before the '>'.  This means that
         tags like these:

            </foo foo="<ignored>">
            </foo ignored>
            </foo ">" ignored>

         are now all parsed as a 'foo' end tag instead of text.
         Even if the extra stuff looks like attributes they will not
         be reported if requested via the 'attr' or 'tokens' argspecs
         for the 'end' handler.

       - Parse '</:comment>' and '</ comment>' as comments unless
         strict_comment is enabled.  Previous versions of the parser
         would report these as text.  If these comments contain
         quoted words prefixed by space or '=' these words can
         contain '>' without terminating the comment.
        
       - Parse '<! "<>" foo>' as comment containing ' "<>" foo'.
         Previous versions of the parser would terminate the comment
         at the first '>' and report the rest as text.

       - Legacy comment mode:  Parse with comments terminated with a
         lone '>' if no '-->' is found before eof.

       - Incomplete tag at eof is reported as a 'comment' instead
         of 'text' unless strict_comment is enabled.



2003-04-16   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.28

     When 'strict_comment' is off (which it is by default)
     treat anything that matches <!...> a comment.

     Should now be more efficient on threaded perls.



2003-01-18   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.27

     Typo fixes to the documentation.

     HTML::Entities::escape_entities_numeric contributed
     by Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>.

     Included one more example program 'hlc' that show
     how to downcase all tags in an HTML file.



2002-03-17   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.26

     Avoid core dump in some cases where the callback croaks.
     The perl_call_method and perl_call_sv needs G_EVAL flag
     to be safe.

     New parser attributes; 'attr_encoded' and 'case_sensitive'.
     Contributed by Guy Albertelli II <guy@albertelli.com>.

     HTML::Entities
         - don't encode \r by default as suggested by Sean M. Burke.

     HTML::HeadParser
         - ignore empty http-equiv
         - allow multiple <link> elements.  Patch by
           Timur I. Bakeyev <timur@gnu.org>

     Avoid warnings from bleadperl on the uentities test.



2001-05-11   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.25

     Minor tweaks for build failures on perl5.004_04, perl-5.6.0,
     and for macro clash under Windows.

     Improved parsing of <plaintext>...  :-)



2001-05-09   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.24

     $p->parse(CODE)

     New events: start_document, end_document

     New argspecs: skipped_text, offset_end

     The offset/line/column counters was not properly reset
     after eof.



2001-05-01   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.23

     If the $p->ignore_elements filter did not work as it should if
     handlers for start/end events was not registered.



2001-04-17   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

     Release 3.22

     The <textarea> element is now parsed in literal mode, i.e. no other tags
     recognized until the

tag is seen. Unlike other literal elements, the text content is not 'cdata'. The XML ' entity is decoded. It apos-char itself is still encoded as ' as ' is not really an HTML tag, and not recognized by many HTML browsers. 2001-04-10 Gisle Aas Release 3.21 Fix a memory leak which occurred when using filter methods. Avoid a few compiler warnings (DEC C): - Trailing comma found in enumerator list - "unsigned char" is not compatible with "const char". Doc update. 2001-04-02 Gisle Aas Release 3.20 Some minor documentation updates. 2001-03-30 Gisle Aas Release 3.19_94 Implemented 'tag', 'line', 'column' argspecs. HTML::PullParser doc update. eg/hform is an example of HTML::PullParser usage. 2001-03-27 Gisle Aas Release 3.19_93 Shorten 'report_only_tags' to 'report_tags'. I think it reads better. Bleadperl portability fixes. 2001-03-25 Gisle Aas Release 3.19_92 HTML::HeadParser made more efficient by using 'ignore_elements'. HTML::LinkExtor made more efficient by using 'report_only_tags'. HTML::TokeParser generalized into HTML::PullParser. HTML::PullParser only support the get_token/unget_token interface of HTML::TokeParser, but is more flexible because the information that make up an token is customisable. HTML::TokeParser is made into an HTML::PullParser subclass. 2001-03-19 Gisle Aas Release 3.19_91 Array references can be passed to the filter methods. Makes it easier to use them as constructor options. Example programs updated to use filters. Reset ignored_element state on EOF. Documentation updates. The netscape_buggy_comment() method now generates mandatory warning about its deprecation. 2001-03-13 Gisle Aas Release 3.19_90 This is an developer only release. It contains some new experimental features. The interface to these might still change. Implemented filters to reduce the numbers of callbacks generated: - $p->ignore_tags() - $p->report_only_tags() - $p->ignore_elements() New @attr argspec. Less overhead than 'attr' and allow compatibility with XML::Parser style start events. The whole argspec can be wrapped up in @{...} to signal flattening. Only makes a difference when the target is an array. 2001-03-09 Gisle Aas Release 3.19 Avoid the entity2char global. That should make the module more thread safe. Patch by Gurusamy Sarathy . 2001-02-24 Gisle Aas Release 3.18 There was a C++ style comment left in util.c. Strict C compilers do not like that kind of stuff. 2001-02-23 Gisle Aas Release 3.17 The 3.16 release broke MULTIPLICITY builds. Fixed. 2001-02-22 Gisle Aas Release 3.16 The unbroken_text option now works across ignored tags. Fix casting of pointers on some 64 bit platforms. Fix decoding of Unicode entities. Only optionally available for perl-5.7.0 or better. Expose internal decode_entities() function at the Perl level. Reindented some code. 2000-12-26 Gisle Aas Release 3.15 HTML::TokeParser's get_tag() method now takes multiple tags to match. Hopefully the documentation is also a bit clearer. #define PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT: Should speed up things for thread enabled versions of perl. Quote some more entities that also happens to be perl keywords. This avoids warnings on perl-5.004. Unicode entities only triggered for perl-5.7.0 or higher. 2000-12-03 Gisle Aas Release 3.14 If a handler triggered by flushing text at eof called the eof method then infinite recursion occurred. Fixed. Bug discovered by Jonathan Stowe . Allow to be parsed as declaration. 2000-09-17 Gisle Aas Release 3.13 Experimental support for decoding of Unicode entities. 2000-09-14 Gisle Aas Release 3.12 Some tweaks to get it to compile with "Optimierender Microsoft (R) 32-Bit C/C++-Compiler, Version 12.00.8168, fuer x86." Patch by Matthias Waldorf . HTML::Entities documentation spelling patch by David Dyck . 2000-08-22 Gisle Aas Release 3.11 HTML::LinkExtor and eg/hrefsub now obtain %linkElements from the HTML::Tagset module. 2000-06-29 Gisle Aas Release 3.10 Avoid core dump when stack gets relocated as the result of text handler invocation while $p->unbroken_text is enabled. Needed to refresh the stack pointer. 2000-06-28 Gisle Aas Release 3.09 Avoid core dump if somebody clobbers the aliased $self argument of a handler. HTML::TokeParser documentation update suggested by Paul Makepeace . 2000-05-23 Gisle Aas Release 3.08 Fix core dump for large start tags. Bug spotted by Alexander Fraser Added yet another example program: eg/hanchors Typo fix by Jamie McCarthy 2000-03-20 Gisle Aas Release 3.07 Fix perl5.004 builds (was broken in 3.06) Declaration parsing mode now only triggers for and . Based on patch by la mouton . 2000-03-06 Gisle Aas Release 3.06 Multi-threading/MULTIPLICITY compilation fix. Both Doug MacEachern and Matthias Urlichs provided a patch. Avoid some "statement not reached" warnings from picky compilers. Remove final commas in enums as ANSI C does not allow them and some compilers actually care. Patch by James Walden Added eg/htextsub example program. 2000-01-22 Gisle Aas Release 3.05 Implemented $p->unbroken_text option Don't parse content of certain HTML elements as CDATA when xml_mode is enabled. Offset was reported with wrong sign for text at end of chunk. 2000-01-15 Gisle Aas Release 3.04 Backed out 3.03-patch that checked for legal handler and attribute names in the HTML::Parser constructor. Documentation typo fixed by Michael. 2000-01-14 Gisle Aas Release 3.03 We did not get out of comment mode for comments ending with an odd number of "-" before ">". Patch by la mouton Documentation patch by Michael. 1999-12-21 Gisle Aas Release 3.02 Hide ~-magic IV-pointer to 'struct p_state' behind a reference. This allow copying of the internal _hparser_xs_state element, and will make HTML-Tree-0.61 work again. Introduced $p->init() which might be useful for subclasses that only want the initialization part of the constructor. Filled out DIAGNOSTICS section of the HTML::Parser POD. 1999-12-19 Gisle Aas Release 3.01 Rely on ~-magic instead of a DESTROY method to deallocate the internal 'struct p_state'. This avoid memory leaks when people simply wipe of the content of the object hash. One of the assertion in hparser.c had opposite logic. This made the parser fail when compiled with a -DDEBUGGING perl. Don't assume any specific order of hash keys in the t/cases.t. This test failed with some newer development releases of perl. 1999-12-14 Gisle Aas Release 3.00 Documentation update (most of it from Michael) Minor patch to eg/hstrip so that it use a "" handler instead of &ignore. Test suite patches from Michael 1999-12-13 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_96 Patches from Michael: - A handler of "" means that the event will be ignored. More efficient than using 'sub {}' as handler. - Don't use a perl hash for looking up argspec keywords. - Documentation tweaks. 1999-12-09 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_95 (this is a 3.00 candidate) Fixed core dump when "<" was followed by an 8-bit character. Spotted and test case provided by Doug MacEachern. Doug had been running HTML-Parser-XS through more that 1 million urls that had been downloaded via LWP. Handlers can now invoke $p->eof to request the parsing to terminate. HTML::HeadParser has been simplified by taking advantage of this. Also added a title-extraction example that uses this. Michael once again fixed my bad English in the HTML::Parser documentation. netscape_buggy_comment will carp instead of warn updated TODO/README Documented that HTML::Filter is depreciated. Made backslash reserved in literal argspec strings. Added several new test scripts. 1999-12-08 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_94 (should almost be a 3.00 candidate) Renamed 'cdata_flag' as 'is_cdata'. Dropped support for wrapping callback handler and argspec in an array and passing a reference to $p->handler. It created ambiguities when you want to pass a array as handler destination and not update argspec. The wrapping for constructor arguments are unchanged. Reworked the documentation after updates from Michael. Simplified internal check_handler(). It should probably simply be inlined in handler() again. Added argspec 'length' and 'undef' Fix statement-less label. Fix suggested by Matthew Langford . Added two more example programs: eg/hstrip and eg/htext. Various minor patches from Michael. 1999-12-07 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_93 Documentation update $p->bool_attr_value renamed as $p->boolean_attribute_value Internal renaming: attrspec --> argspec Introduced internal 'enum argcode' in hparser.c Added eg/hrefsub 1999-12-05 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_92 More documentation patches from Michael Renamed 'token1' as 'token0' as suggested by Michael For artificial end tags we now report 'tokens', but not 'tokenpos'. Boolean attribute values show up as (0, 0) in 'tokenpos' now. If $p->bool_attr_value is set it will influence 'tokens' Fix for core dump when parsing when $p->strict_names(0). Based on fix by Michael. Will av_extend() the tokens/tokenspos arrays. New test suite script by Michael: t/attrspec.t 1999-12-04 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_91 Implemented attrspec 'offset' Documentation patch from Michael Some more cleanup/updated TODO 1999-12-03 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_90 (first beta for 3.00) Using "realloc" as a parameter name in grow_tokens created problems for some people. Fix by Paul Schinder Patch by Michael that makes array handler destinations really work. Patch by Michael that make HTML::TokeParser use this. This gave a a speedup of about 80%. Patch by Michael that makes t/cases into a real test. Small HTML::Parser documentation patch by Michael. Renamed attrspec 'origtext' to 'text' and 'decoded_text' to 'dtext' Split up Parser.xs. Moved stuff into hparser.c and util.c Dropped html_ prefix from internal parser functions. Renamed internal function html_handle() as report_event(). 1999-12-02 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_17 HTML::Parser documentation patch from Michael. Fix memory leaks in html_handler() Patch that makes an array legal as handler destination. Also from Michael. The end of marked sections does not eat successive newline any more. The artificial end event for empty tag in xml_mode did not report an empty origtext. New constructor option: 'api_version' 1999-12-01 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_16 Support "event" in argspec. It expands to the name of the handler (minus "default"). Fix core dump for large start tags. The tokens_grow() routine needed an adjustment. Added test for this; t/largstags.t. 1999-11-30 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_15 Major restructuring/simplification of callback interface based on initial work by Michael. The main news is that you now need to tell what arguments you want to be provided to your callbacks. The following parser options has been eliminated: $p->decode_text_entities $p->keep_case $p->v2_compat $p->pass_self $p->attr_pos 1999-11-26 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_14 Documentation update by Michael A. Chase. Fix for declaration parsing by Michael A. Chase. Workaround for perl5.004_05 bug. Can't return &PL_sv_undef. 1999-11-22 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_13 New Parser.pm POD based on initial work by Michael A. Chase. All new features should now be described. $p->callback(start => undef) will not reset the callback. $p->xml_mode() did not parse attributes correct because HCTYPE_NOT_SPACE_EQ_SLASH_GT flag was never set. A few more tests. 1999-11-18 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_12 Implemented $p->attr_pos attribute. This causes attr positions within $origtext of the start tag to be reported instead of the attribute values. The positions are reported as 4 numbers; end of previous attr, start of this attr, start of attr value, and end of attr. This should make substr() manipulations of $origtext easy. Implemented $p->unbroken_text attribute. This makes sure that text segments are never broken and given back as separate text callbacks. It delays text callbacks until some other markup has been recognized. More English corrections by Michael A. Chase. HTML::LinkExtor now recognizes even more URI attributes as suggested by Sean M. Burke Completed marked sections support. It is also now a compile time decision if you want this supported or not. The only drawback of enabling it should be a possible parsing speed reduction. I have not measured this yet. The keys for callbacks initialized in the constructor are now suffixed with "_cb". Renamed $p->pass_cbdata to $p->pass_self. Added magic number to the p_state struct. 1999-11-17 Gisle Aas Release 2.99_11 Don't leak $@ modifications from HTML::Parser constructor. Included HTML::Parser POD. Marked sections almost work. CDATA and RCDATA should work. For tags that take us into literal_mode;
