html parser: text nodes do not close void tags

[vicb]

<h1> start <br> end </h1>

br is not closed

[yfain]

I was getting errors when closing tags as in <textarea ... /> . After changing to <textarea></textarea> the errors were gone.

[genereux]

I got errors using <img/>, or <img></img>.

[pkozlowski-opensource]

@genereux <img> is a void element and according to the spec:

Void elements only have a start tag; end tags must not be specified for void elements.

[genereux]

I tried also <img> but it is still not working.
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#"> <img alt="Brand" src=""> </a>
What could be the reason?

[vicb]

The reason is that you have a text node " " (white space) after your img tag.

Note that your html is valid but because of a bug in our parser things went wrong.

Before the next release, you should remove the space.
