incorrect html4 parsing #694

pyhedgehog · 2015-04-05T21:00:21Z

console.log(cheerio.load('<html><body><li><ul>item1<ul>item2<ul>item3').html());

shows

<html><body><li><ul>item1<ul>item2<ul>item3</ul></ul></ul></li></body></html>

should be

<html><body><li><ul>item1</ul><ul>item2</ul><ul>item3</ul></li></body></html>

Also,

console.log(cheerio.load('<p>some<p>text</p>here</p>').html());

prints

<p>some</p><p>text</p>here<p></p>

instead of

<p>some<p>text</p>here</p>

no unclosed tags here

I realize that it doesn't make sense to have a paragraph inside a paragraph, but it's still a perfectly valid xml structure.

This is in line with the HTML spec.
