Bad xml format in html output from Web API
• What steps will reproduce the problem?
Get an html or htmlFragment from any page
• What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The output have an xml declaration, but instead of a valid html/xml structure
there are extra tags that break the xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<meta …/>
<base … />
<html>
<body>
...
</body>
</html>
And in the <html> the style comes directly after the <html> and not in a <head>.
The correct output would be:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<html>
<head>
<meta …/>
<base … />
<style>...</style>
</head>
<body>
...
</body>
</html>
• What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
The Web API http://boilerpipe-web.appspot.com/extract
And thanks for this great *GREAT* tool!!!

Hi François,
thanks for pointing this out.
The addition of meta and base was a deliberate decision (it was just easier to
append it in front of the highlighted HTML). Nevertheless, it is worth fixing.
Cheers,
Christian
