Subject: base in header is ignored
Date: Tue, 27 May 2008 10:23:01 +0200
To: <bug-libwww-perl [...] rt.cpan.org>
From: Jesper Jørgen Persson <jjp [...] siteimprove.com>
The $response->base does not the return the embedded base after requesting the following page: <html> <head> <span></span> <base href="http://www.mybasetest.dk" /> </head> <body> </body> </html> It seems to be the span tag in the header that causes the problem. The problem was observed on the follow web page: http://www.epsom-ewell.gov.uk/eebc/events/venues+press+releases.htm OS: Windows XP SP.2 Perl version: Summary of my perl5 (revision 5 version 8

HTML::HeadParser decided that the <head> element has ended when it see a tag that can't be part of it. It means that it never looks past the <span> tag.

I think that's correct behaviour.
