Noscript tag stop working in html on adding MarkRequestMiddleware class in django

[Ajeetlakhani]

I want to use style tag inside noscript tag to add a fallback message but style tag inside noscript tag gets minified and rendered as string.

I am getting the same issue; and it is very problematic when trying to use amp because the "<style amp-boilerplate>" is required but is not rendered properly.

It may be related with html5lib/html5lib-python#104 But I am not sure.

Thank you,

@jlariza You are correct, the issue is with html5lib. To circumvent this issue I just changed the parser inside of django-htmlmin/blob/master/htmlmin/minify.py (Line 52)

def html_minify(html_code, ignore_comments=True, parser="html5lib"):
    html_code = force_text(html_code)
    # soup = bs4.BeautifulSoup(html_code, 'html.parser')
    soup = bs4.BeautifulSoup(html_code, parser) 
    mini_soup = space_minify(soup, ignore_comments)

The comment is my changed line. I changed it to mirror the Quickstart documentation from BeautifulSoup:

https://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/bs4/doc/index.html

after that my issues went away.

There's an undocumented html5 parser setting that you can use to specify the parser. So just add the following to your django settings:

    HTML_MIN_PARSER = 'html.parser'

as far as I know, there are other issues when not using html5lib? any experiences? maybe @andrewsmedina has some insights to share?

I am using html.parser for now, and it seems to work well...

and....html5lib==1.0.1 solves this problem for me...
