[New-bugs-announce] [issue42764] HTMLParser close() issue

[Anthony Hodson]

New submission from Anthony Hodson <aeh at xdotd.com>:

HTMLParser close() does not seem to dispose of previous HTML analyses.

I an sending a simple test to demonstrate this, complete with functions 
that are part of a set of testing facilities.  The problem is present for more complex HTML.
