chrismattmann commented on issue #238: TIKA-2100 extract content language from
html lang attribute
URL: https://github.com/apache/tika/pull/238#issuecomment-392283049
@tballison I hear you and am open to alternatives. What is a better way to
do this? I think missing the lang attribute is a pretty bad thing and have seen
it in the past. It feels like HTMLParser as a parser should contribute it (and
I don't think you object to that) perhaps via Metadata.set and then what should
we do to propagate it?

> Html Parser does not keep the html tag attributes
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-2100
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2100
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 1.13
> Reporter: Gerard Bouchar
> Priority: Major
>
> Parsing a very simple html like
> <!DOCTYPE html>
> <html lang="en">
> <head>
> <title>Page Title</title>
> </head>
> <body>
> <h1 align="left">My First Heading</h1>
> <p>My first paragraph.</p>
> </body>
> </html>
> you won't be able to access the html tag's attributes (here lang="en") in the
> ContentHandler :
> *in the method startElement(String ns, String localName, String name,
> Attributes atts), atts is empty.
> *Moreover it seems that the html tag's attributes are not passed trough the
> HtmlMapper.mapSafeAttribute method too.
