Correct, it is now included with FPC. The problem being, I found 3
different copies in the various FPC packages. I've asked Michael van
Canneyt if we can consolidate the various fasthtmlparser units into one
location, and let the various FPC packages use that one copy instead. He
agreed, but I haven't submitted a patch for that yet. It's on my todo list.

This brings some kind of Deja Vu as I may have had a similar issue once
upon a time... but cannot remember ;-)

I thought it was part of fpc packaes source
(http://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/packages/chm/src/fasthtmlparser.pas?view=markup)
and bugs can be reported in fpc bugtracker?

I have plans to put fast html parser on an official git hub so that any
issues can be reported centrally

Thanks for finding bugs (assuming they are not just technicalities as Bart
was saying)

I'm not sure. I used FastHTMLParser 2+ months ago and discovered a
couple of bugs in it, and similar behaviour to what you mentioned. I
wrote some unit tests for it and fixed the bugs I found. I'll make a not
to publish my changes and test suite.

Never mind, I did not think this through.
I solved my problem in a better way (it should never have depended on
the OnFoundText event in the first place).

Sorry for wasting your time.

[fpc-pascal] FastHtmlParser does not fire OnFoundText on e.g. empty table cell

[Bart]

Hi,

If you parse HTML using FastHtmlParser in order to extract a HTML
table content, then, if a table contains an empty cell (),
the OnFoundText event is not fired.
While technically this may be correct, I would have expected it to
fire OnFoundText('').

In my program I use the OnFoundText to populate a 2-dimesional
table-like structure, and this fails due to this behaviour of
FastHtmlParser.

Is this intended behaviour?
If so, could it be made configurable to do fire the OnFoundText event
in such cases?
