Demo HTML parser gives incorrect summaries when title is repeated as a heading
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: LUCENE-590
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-590
     Project: Lucene - Java
        Type: Bug

  Components: Examples  
    Versions: 2.0.0    
    Reporter: Curtis d'Entremont



If you have an html document where the title is repeated as a heading at the 
top of the document, the HTMLParser will return the title as the summary, 
ignoring everything else that was added to the summary. Instead, it should keep 
the rest of the summary and chop off the title part at the beginning 
(essentially the opposite). I don't see any benefit to repeating the title in 
the summary for any case.

In HTMLParser.jj's getSummary():

    String sum = summary.toString().trim();
    String tit = getTitle();
    if (sum.startsWith(tit) || sum.equals(""))
      return tit;
    else
      return sum;

change it to: (* denotes a line that has changed)

    String sum = summary.toString().trim();
    String tit = getTitle();
*    if (sum.startsWith(tit))             // don't repeat title in summary
*      return sum.substring(tit.length()).trim();
    else
      return sum;
