I have looked into the libxml code and I found the method htmlParseScript() within HTMLParser.c.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/blob/master/HTMLparser.c It describes the problem with the "<" character within scripts. But it offers the possibility to use the recover mode to ignore the tags. I have used xmllint --html -htmlout --recover mypage.html and it returns the last </td> tag. The PHP equivalent does not work (there is a flag "recover" on class DOMDocument, but the output is always the same). So I will look into the DOMDocument code (if it is available). ~André On 18.08.2018 00:33, Eric S Eberhard wrote: > I could be way off base -- don't you have to encode the portions in the js? > Otherwise I can see it being confused.
