Hi!
Together with Nicolas we are trying to get all the <script …> … </script> from html files. We have tried to use XMLDOMParser, but many webpages are actually not well formed, therefore the parser is complaining.
Anyone has tried to get some particular tags from HTML files? This looks like a classical thing to do. Maybe some of you have done it. Is there a way to configure the parser to accept a broken XML/HTML content?
Cheers, Alexandre
Hi,
You can also consider using island parsing, this very cool addition to PetitParser developed by Jan:
beginScript := '<script>' asParser. endScript := '</script>' asParser. script := beginScript , endScript negate star flatten , endScript ==> #second. islandScripts := (script island ==> #second) star.
If you apply it on:
code := 'uninteresting part <script> some code </script> another uninteresting part <script> some other code </script> yet another uninteresting part '.
You get: islandScripts parse: code ==> "#('some code' 'some other code')"
Quite cool, no? :)
