I’ve seen it mentioned as maybe being in
REXML, NET, or MECHANIZE, but have not
managed to find in any of those.
Most likely, I’ve missed it.
Anyone know how to find it?
And can anyone compare with HTree?
(I like HTree’s to\_rexml function, but
are they equally robust?)
thanks

Mechanize uses HTML::XMLParser to parse HTML.

HTML::XMLParser is part of the ruby-web project:
[http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-web/](http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-web/)

Not sure… I’ve never used HTree.
Hope some of this helps!

Note: I see why my searches led nowhere.
The online documents don’t even mention the
HTML module, much less an XMLParser inside it!
