Re: [Chicken-users] html->sxml (html-parser egg) does not decode entitie

Alex,

Looks like there's a regression of sorts in html-parser 0.5.1.

0.5.0

#;> (html->sxml "<foo bar></foo>")
(*TOP* (foo (@ (bar))))

0.5.1

#;> (html->sxml "<foo bar></foo>")
Error: (cadr) bad argument type: ()

Arguably, empty attributes should result in a value of "" as per http://dev.w3.org/html5/markup/syntax.html#syntax-attr-empty ; for example,

#;> (html->sxml "<foo bar></foo>")
(*TOP* (foo (@ (bar ""))))

although I'd also be satisfied with a return to the status quo ante, in which a null cdr signifies empty.

Jim

Hi Alex,

Excellent! Thanks for looking into it and for the tip re custom parsers - I was trying to understand that code!

It should work now, let me know if you have any problems.
