Hi, I would like to import changes from: The problem is that HTMLParser from 2.7.2 is not lenient and likes to throw exceptions, when html document is not well formed: http://bugs.python.org/issue13987 This often involves exception from BeautifoulSoup, which gains great speed up when using from pypy + HTMLParser from stdlib: "RuntimeWarning: Python's built-in HTMLParser cannot parse the given document. This is not a bug in Beautiful Soup. The best solution is to install an external parser (lxml or html5lib), and use Beautiful Soup with that parser. See http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/bs4/doc/#installing- a-parser for help." However lxml is not compatibile with PyPy, and html5lib is slow. Can I port the HTMLParser.py from python 2.7.3 to PyPy? -- Robert Zaremba
