Change Log

1.0

Released on XXX, 2013

Implementation updated to implement the HTML specification as of 5th May 2013 (SVN revision r7867).
Python 3.2+ supported in a single codebase using the six library.
Removed support for Python 2.5 and older.
Removed the deprecated Beautiful Soup 3 treebuilder. beautifulsoup4 can use html5lib as a parser instead. Note that since it doesn't support namespaces, foreign content like SVG and MathML is parsed incorrectly.
Removed simpletree from the package. The default tree builder is now etree (using the xml.etree.cElementTree implementation if available, and xml.etree.ElementTree otherwise).
Removed the XHTMLSerializer as it never actually guaranteed its output was well-formed XML, and hence provided little of use.
Optional heuristic character encoding detection now based on charade for Python 2.6 - 3.3 compatibility.
Optional Genshi treewalker support fixed.
Many bugfixes, including:
- #33: null in attribute value breaks XML AttValue;
- #4: nested, indirect descendant, <button> causes infinite loop;
- Google Code 215: Properly detect seekable streams;
- Google Code 206: add support for <video preload=...>, <audio preload=...>;
- Google Code 205: add support for <video poster=...>;
- Google Code 202: Unicode file breaks InputStream.
Source code is now mostly PEP 8 compliant.
Test harness has been improved and now depends on nose.
