[Htmlparser-user] Quick beginner question...

[Joe R. <jr...@ya...>]

I'm not sure if this is a browser bug  or a parser bug, but the 
following code...

    <TABLE width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" border="0">
      <TR>
        <TD valign="top">
          <FONT face="arial" size="-1"><B>&#149;</B>&nbsp;</FONT>
        </TD>
        <TD>
          <A href="s/15341"><FONT face="arial" size="-1">Bush vows to 
seek Congress' OK on Iraq</FONT></A>
        </TD>
      </TR>
    </TABLE>

when parsed by the html parser and rewritten, is output with the first 
<TD> element broken up as follows...

<FONT face="arial" size="-1">
<B>
&#149;
</B>
&nbsp;
</FONT>

This renders differently than when they are joined. I didn't think 
whitespace was supposed to affect presentation but here it seems to be 
significant, in both Internet Explorer and Mozilla. This is from the 
news headline table on the right of the main 'www.yahoo.com' page. Is 
there a way to output this to render correctly using HTMLParser?
