+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #308412 for the purposes of backporting to 3.0.5p +++ Take the following HTML source: <ul> <li>Item 1 <li>Item 2 <li>Item 3 </ul> and this: <ul> <li>Item 1</li> <li>Item 2</li> <li>Item 3</li> </ul> In WTP, the DOM is constructed with the subsequent elements of the unterminated li elements as descendents. Both IE and Firefox construct the same DOM for both chunks of source, that is, the li elements are siblings. W3C documents (e.g. http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/html3/HTMLandSGML.html) state that some tags are implicitly terminated based on their position. The li tag is one such tag. Should the WTP DOM take implicitly-closed tags into consideration? Is the current WTP DOM correct?
Created attachment 171678 [details] patch Patch that will allow for elements with omissible end tags.
Nick, the addition of a method to an existing interface needs a great amount of care. Could you also ensure that the o.e.w.html.core requires at least this version of o.e.w.xml.core?
Created attachment 171843 [details] patch Updated the patch. Instead of adding a new method to the interface, I wrote an extension. I also updated the min version for o.e.w.html.core's dependency on o.e.w.xml.core to 1.1.312.
