[jira] [Resolved] (TIKA-725) Empty title element makes Tika-generated HTML documents not open in Chromium

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-725?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jukka Zitting resolved TIKA-725.

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 0.10

Hmm, good point. The XML serializer will output <title/> when no characters() events come between the start and end tags and <title></title> when there's an empty characers() event in between. This distinction shouldn't make much difference to clients, but since it apparently does for Chromium, I guess it's best if we work around the issue.

Thus, I fixed this in revision 1173050 by explicitly emitting an empty characters() event inside <title> when no title string is available.

> Currently when converting Excel sheets (both XLS and XLSX), Tika generates an empty title element as <title/> into the document HEAD section. This causes Chromium not to display the document contents.
> Switching it to <title></title> fixes this.
