Re: [Flex-help] lexer for parsing multipart mime encoded data

[John G. <jgw...@da...>]

We don't do that but we do lex HTML pages before they go out of our web
server, as well as HTTP POST verb's for data coming back.

It works pretty well.

We used flex instead of YACC as all we really needed to do was to get
the basic <object> tag elements and parse them (we substitute them from
the seeded pages with values from a database).

Some things to be carefull of: watch for comment blocks, and watch for
UTF-8 strings.  If you misinterpret MS Mincho fonts inside literal
elements on the page you can miss the terminating double quote char and
much hilarity ensues.
