Hi,

I think it would be good to have parsing consistent with web browsers 
which means implementing HTML5 parsing algorithm. I have been using the 
following parser when I needed to process HTML5 input by XSLT:

Perhaps switching to this parser from TagSoup would give better results 
if some other HTML5 compliant parser would be used in .NET product as well.
