7-Jul-99 bug: <dir> containing unterminated <li>'s

From: Randy Waki <rwaki144@whizbanglabs.com> Date: Thu, 22 Jul 1999 18:30:19 -0600 To: "HTML Tidy Mailing List" <html-tidy@w3.org> Message-ID: <000401bed4a2$8b0391d0$ce9946a6@rwaki> · This archive was generated by hypermail 2.2.0+W3C-0.50 : Monday, 7 December 2009 10:37:46 GMT

The HTML document below has an obsolete <dir> containing a list of
unterminated <li>'s.  7-Jul-99 Tidy incorrectly transforms the second and
subsequent <li>'s into children of the first <li>.  This appears to be a
regression error since 14-Apr-99 Tidy correctly made all <li>'s siblings.
