Eliminate display:none tags
Hi there, I have a request that shouldn't be too hard to make, though might require some trickery for a proper full CSS solution.
If you look at the code of http://www.readwriteweb.com/start/2012/04/what-do-angels-want.php you'll see some tags like <div style="display:none;" id="disqus_post_message">...</div>
in there, which are clearly hidden and shouldn't come up in the summary. However, in the current version of the library they do (and the display:none is stripped out in the summary()).
Interestingly, in the bookmark version of readability, these things don't show up, not even as display:none, so maybe there is a fix there already?
Thanks so much for looking into it.
Cheers
Determining tags visibility is out of scope for this project. It's much easier in bookmark version -- it has DOM with css and javascript applied.
But check for style="display:none" can be handled if anyone else but me will implement this. I'm in "maintainer mode" now, so don't have time to implement new functionality. Sorry.
