Re: HTML Parsing

Gee thanks, that sounds exactly like what I need.

But still, satisfy my curiosity, what is the purpose of the HTML packages
in xerces?

org.apache.html.dom
org.w3c.dom.html

Thanks again.

Franck

Sounds like you want an HTML parser which converts to XHTML.  Try Tidy

The W3C interfaces are from the HTML API of the DOM. And the Apache
code is an HTML DOM implementation that was donated to the project.
