Hello,

I'd like to parse HTML file with xml parser so people can change DTDs (adding tags,...) without having to re-compile libxml.
The main problem is "Auto Closed" tag.

So I'd like to know some things:
  Can I safetely mix html and xml parser functions (i.e. construct a context with xmlCreateMemoryParserCtxt() and parse the doc with htmlParseDocument. My SAX functions use parser context _private member) ? It works with version 2.2.3 but will it works with next versions ?
  Another solution would be use xml parser only but how can I manage auto close tags ?

BTW, I've noticed few things in last version:
  - there's no htmlCreateMemoryParserCtxt() public function
  - Definitions of SAX handlers like
  xmlSAXHandler sgmlDefaultSAXHandler = {
        internalSubset,
        NULL,
        ...
    doesn't define externalSubset.
  - html parser seems to not call xmlLoadExternalEntity

Thank you for your help !

Manuel
