Subject: How to find out what BS chokes on?
Hi, I'm trying to parse this page:
http://www.1up.com/do/reviewPage?cId=3172670
and BS returns with HTMLParseError: malformed start tag, at line 990,
column 12 .
How can I find what element/tag in the HTML is causing this error?
Thanks in advance,
Mathieu

The error message you quoted is telling you. Line 990, column 12
points to a broken width attribute of a td tag.

'Broken' in the sense that is a deprecated attribute? Or am I too
blind to see another issue with this tag?

Broken because what is intended as the width attribute is missing an '=' sign.

There's a missing equals sign.
It reads '<td width"100%"...' where it should be '<td width="100%"...'
