Double <p> <p> open tags leave one <p> open even with option setted

[Glorfindel88]

When trying to parse an html obtained from an editor, a double <p><p> open tag does not get closed.
Only one of the two is closed,
<p><p>
becomes
<p><p></p>
even when options OptionCheckSyntax, OptionFixNestedTags and OptionWriteEmptyNodes are set to true.

The only way both tags are closed is to set OptionOutputAsXml to true.

Here is a fiddle of what happens:

HAP version 1.11.58
.NET Framework 4.8

Hello @Glorfindel88 ,

That is an expected behavior.

A p tag can be closed implicitly when followed by another p tag: https://www.w3.org/MarkUp/HTMLPlus/htmlplus_11.html#:~:text=The%20P%20element%20acts%20as%20a%20container%20for%20the%20text,tag%20as%20a%20paragraph%20separator.

See this line in the example on the page:

<P>The first piece of text<P>The second piece

Let me know if that answer correctly to your question.

Hello @JonathanMagnan ,
thank you for your answer.
I know the tags can work that way and that works as far as the browser is concerned.
But i did not think the behavior was expected, given the options. And a previous version of HAP we used, can't remember which one, did close the double tag. And we need to close all tags for other operations we then do on the html.
Is there any option setting that allows to close everything, or only OptionOutputAsXml?

Thanx,

Best Regards.

Hello @Glorfindel88 ,

There is currently no option, but we will look to see if we can add one. Everything looks to be already coded for this, so it should be very easy.

Hello @Glorfindel88 ,

The v1.11.59 has been released.

In this version, we added the option DisableImplicitEnd that you can now set to true to have the expected behavior.

Let me know if everything is now working as expected on your side.
