[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-1193) Allow access to HtmlParser's HtmlSchema

["Markus Jelsma (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Markus Jelsma commented on TIKA-1193:
-------------------------------------

Hi- are there any objections to putting this in? I know unit tests can break if applications incorrectly modify the schema, e.g. removing the shape attrib from anchors, but that's the responsibility of the application.. Perhaps marking it as expert would be satisfying?

> TagSoup's HTMLSchema is not really well suited for HTML5 nor is it capable of correctly handling some very strange quirks, e.g. table inside anchors. By allowing access to the schema applications can modify the schema to suit their needs on the fly.
> This would also mean that we don't have to rely on TIKA-985 getting committed, we can change it from our own applications.
