Subject: Regression in parsing (X)HTML - test attached
Version 1.67 introduced a regression in parsing HTML files. This issue continues to exist in later versions. See attached test, which parses some trivial XHTML and pulls a value out. This test passes on 1.66, and fails on 1.67 to 1.69_2.

Thanks for the report. A fix is now committed to SVN. As a temporary workaround setup recovery mode with $parser->recover(1); Your test case is now part of the regression tests. -- Petr
