Missing "unclosed tag" error on child nodes.

[mikehaverstock]

<div><b></div>

outputs:

React.createElement("div", null, "\x3Cb\x3E")

rather than throwing an error that <b> is unclosed. The JSX transformer throws an error:

Expected corresponding JSX closing tag for <b>

This is a consequence of how loose/dumb the parser is. I'm currently experimenting with a new implementation which would tighten up to the CJSX grammar a bit, in a way that would make detecting invalid tags much simpler.

Do you have any idea on when the new parser will be done? Do you have any insight how to fix this problem with the current parser?

[jsdf]

No timeline on the new parser as yet. The current compiler could be made to fail if something which looks like a tag was detected in a CJSX 'text node', which isn't a very clean solution from a parsing perspective, but would probably catch most cases.
