<a> unexpectedly unwrapped from around <ul>

[Lyle]

I'm seeing some behavior I don't quite understand. I want to wrap a <ul> with a link.

example.html:

<a>

    <ul>

        <li>One</li>

        <li>Two</li>

        <li>Three</li>

    </ul>

</a>

 

At the REPL I see:

user=> (use 'clojure.pprint 'net.cgrand.enlive-html)

user=> (pprint (select (html-resource "resources/example.html") [:body]))

({:tag :body,

  :attrs nil,

  :content

  ({:tag :a, :attrs nil, :content ("\n    ")}

   {:tag :ul,

    :attrs nil,

    :content

    ("\n        "

     {:tag :li, :attrs nil, :content ("One")}

     "\n        "

     {:tag :li, :attrs nil, :content ("Two")}

     "\n        "

     {:tag :li, :attrs nil, :content ("Three")}

     "\n    ")}

   "\n\n")})

nil

More concisely:

user=> (pprint (select (html-resource "resources/example.html") [:a]))

({:tag :a, :attrs nil, :content ("\n    ")})

 

Is this an issue of trying to put a block-level element inside an inline one? The document I'm trying to generate is valid HTML5, for whatever that's worth.

Thanks,

Lyle

Hi,

You're right in your analysis, the problem stems from TagSoup fixing your html (blocks inside inlines).
Try replacing all html-resource by xml-resource. If it doesn't work then you'll need to implement your own *-resource, maybe by using NekoHTML. In any cases, don't hesitate to ask for help here.

I've been planning to replace TagSoup and the *-resource mechanism by a single resource function/mmethod and an option map but I had no time yet to work on this. If someone is willing to help on this task, please step in.

Thanks. xml-resource didn't work for me either since it didn't like some of my other markup, so due to time constraints I've simply worked around it by wrapping that element in my Ring handler after the resource is loaded.
