    Description

      XHTMLContentHandler has some logic that closes the head section too early, or this is a problem in TagSoup. In this [1] case a <div> element appears in the head, causing the head to be closed. Subsequent <head> elements do not appear in custom ContentHandlers so i cannot read the document's title, or any other meta tags.

      It can be fixed by using a custom HTMLSchema in the ParseContext, e.g. schema.elementType("div", HTMLSchema.M_EMPTY, 65535, 0); but this isn't really an elegant solution.
