Gumbo HTML parser by Google for Prince

pepelsbey
I wonder if it's worth for Prince to use Gumbo HTML parser by Google.

https://github.com/google/gumbo-parser

In theory it could be more compatible with current and future versions of HTML5 (and embedded SVG as well). Just curious.

Looks neat! Would have been handy to have this before we wrote our own. Guess we'll just have to make sure ours is better :)

Our new parser supports fragment parsing, which is needed to support the innerHTML property in the JavaScript DOM, which we need. So there's that.

Yep, fragment parsing is on the Gumbo roadmap.

Anyway, thanks for Prince 9, it works perfect.
