Ah - this is a known bug. It doesent work bcos the parser is not capable of
handling dynamic pages. This is actually not a difficult bug to fix. Version
1.10 of HTMLParser (the next release - coming soon) will contain this and
other fixes.

So you will have to wait till this weekend, or make the fix yourself - the
bug probably lies in HTMLParser.java itself, in the way a page extension is
handled.
