Of course - HTMLParser now takes in a logging object -
HTMLParserFeedback. All you have to do is to implement
this interface and pass your object in to the parser.
If you don't, a DefaultHTMLParserFeedback object is
created - and its function is to send log data to
System.out.

You are right - the javadoc on HTMLEndTag needs to be
updated. Thanks for pointing that out.
