Re: [Htmlparser-user] Failure parsing html with StringBean

[Derrick O. <Der...@Ro...>]

Mark,

A newline is only inserted in the output if the tag breaks the normal 
flow of text.
The list of tags that do this is from the HTML specification and is 
encoded in the org.htmlparser.nodes.Tagnode class as the breakTags list.

The StringBean processing is driven by the tags that are encountered. If 
it doesn't see a tag that causes a break, none is emitted.
 
Since the text $[weblogEnabled$ is outside of any TD tag in a table, an 
argument could be made that it shouldn't print at all, but if your 
browser prints something and it inserts a newline, an argument could 
also be made to change the operation of the StringBean to assume that a 
break is pending *after* tags that break the flow, and output newlines 
accordingly. I fear this would cause more problems than it solves though.

Presumably this 'dollar text' will be substituted by some server side 
processing into a real <TD>xxxx</TD> section, perhaps the parser should 
be applied after this processing.
