## KNOWN_BUGS - Problems with html2text Sat Jul 5 12:40:24 CEST 2003

# ( 0.1 )---------------------------------------------------------------------
# Make HTTP implementation optional?
A corresponding compile-time option would enhance portability (no socket()
needed). Moreover, html2text's HTTP implementation is rather rudimentary, so
it maybe could be eliminated completely. But I don't know how many users
prefer to have html2text to fetch the files by itself instead of using it
within a pipe...
This however would lead to a complete re-write of the configure-script,
because we don't have any compile-time options yet.
# ( 1 )=======================================================================
# Bugs of minor severity
#
# The package fails to perform correctly on some conditions, or in some
# systems, or fails to comply current policy documents.
# ( 1.1 )---------------------------------------------------------------------
# When parsing much nested TABLEs, html2text will run out of control.
This problem occurs on very complex tables with more than about 25 nested
TABLE elements, because the runtime increases exponentially with each nested
table.
Sorry, no fix for this within sight.
