If so we | might have to hack it to support the idea of the extra html tags allowed | in Bodington templates. HTMLParser builds up a DOM tree from the HTML so you could achieve this. But then again - it may take longer to do this automatically than by hand. But then again it would help people like Eton who have their own templates. But then again Eton wont want their templates i18nalised. But then again ... | | > You would also be able to make sure that <textarea/> appears as | > <textarea></textarea> as well. | | The textarea problem was that the template source contained the closing | tag but all XML parsers collapse the opening and closing tags into one | so when it passes through the template compilation it comes out as one. | | The fix was to just ass support to the XmlTemplate compiler so it deals | with a <textarea> tag specially.
