Bug #82892 for HTML-Diff: HTML::Diff bug

Dear HTML::Diff maintainer ("ezrakilty"): First, thanks for this fabulously useful tool! It's been a life saver for us (and we're in the business of saving lives :-). We are using the HTML::Diff module to compare HTML renditions of our XML source files for medical-device documentation. It's the only way we've found to get decent, "WYSIWYG"-ish comparisons (despite the many advertised tools that claim to do this). The problem we've encountered is that fairly often the comparison "loses its mind" and reports everything after a certain point as being different, even when it's identical. The attached "BugReport.7z" 7-Zip package contains a description of the problem, sample inputs, outputs, diagnostic data, and annotated screen caps of the issues. Feel free to email or ring me if you have any questions or want more information. Regards, Howard Howard Pierce Principal Software Engineer, MAPS Medtronic Australasia Pty.
