Jericho HTML Parser 2.4

Jerich HTML Parser is a simple but powerful java library allowing analysis and manipulation of parts of an HTML document, including some common server-side tags, while reproducing verbatim any unrecognised or invalid HTML. It also provides high-level HTML form manipulation functions.
Jericho HTML Parser project is an open source library released under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). You are therefore free to use it in commercial applications subject to the terms detailed in the licence document.
Main features:
- No parse tree of the entire document is ever generated. The document source text is searched only for the markup relevant to the current operation. This allows the library to analyse and modify documents containing incorrect or badly formatted HTML or any other server or client side code, script, macro or markup. Most other parsers cant handle content that they are not explicitly programmed to accept.
- The beginning and end positions in the source text of all parsed segments are accessible, allowing modification of only selected segments of the document without having to reconstruct the entire document from a parse tree. This feature, in combination with the one above, makes the toolkit extremely powerful in its simplicity.
- Provides a simple but comprehensive interface for the analysis and manipulation of HTML form controls, including the extraction and population of initial values, and conversion to read-only or data display modes. Analysis of the form controls also allows data received from the form to be stored and presented in an appropriate manner.
- ASP, JSP, PSP, PHP and Mason server tags can be registered for recognition by the parser, and are recognised as accurately as is possible without incorporating actual parsers for these languages into the library. The library then allows any of these segments to be ignored when parsing the rest of the document so that they do not interfere with the HTML syntax. (see Segment.ignoreWhenParsing())
- Custom tag types can be easily defined and registered for recognition by the parser.
Enhancements:
- This version has been released under a dual licence system, allowing a choice between the Eclipse Public License (EPL) and the LGPL.
- It includes important bugfixes and introduces the following major features: simple rendering of HTML markup into text, integrated logging with various logging frameworks, and easier parsing of HTML tags containing server tags.
