How to configure the Nekohtml html parser to turn into

Question

I'm evaluating the Nekothml parser among other Java HTML parsers, and I'm trying to make it replace all my <br> with <br /> elements. Can this be done using the Nekohtml API? Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

The nekohtml parser is a parser. It produces a DOM tree or SAX events, all in memory, not text. If you have configured it properly, it will read the html <br> as if it were an empty XML element, and any XML serialization will them produce <br/>.
