:) I noticed the devcvs messages earlier. :) I'm just finishing up a 
project for work that's had me tied up for the last two months, so I'll 
be getting back to work myself [again] soon. When I was last working 
with the code in November, I noticed a few bugs in processing set-cookie 
headers on certain sites. (Oddly enough, only on Microsoft owned sites.) 
So while it might not be directly related to HTML parsing, I'll be sure 
to keep an eye on what happens.
