Entirely this, HTML5 is not XML (oh I so wish we got XHTML2 instead of HTML5, bleh) and things will absolutely not parse as expected in an XML document for certain tags and certain constructs.

Release v0.7.2
The largest change is that Meeseeks.html/1 and Meeseeks.tree/1 can now be called on a Meeseeks.Document to output the whole document’s HTML or tuple-tree structure.
A bug related to parsing doctypes was also fixed.

Release v0.7.3
A super minor release, just fixing a couple warnings that popped up with Elixir 1.5.
On a tangentially related note, the much slowed rate of releases has nothing to do with my commitment to the project- I just haven’t encountered any bugs or thought of any improvements.
The big next steps for the library (barring the appearance of a bug or improvement) will be a chores such as a style unification and further improving the documentation (if anybody has felt let down by some portion of the documentation, please speak up). I also plan to release some articles about web scraping with Elixir and Meeseeks (if you have any ideas for examples or articles you wish were written on the subject, get in touch).

Nor have I, I’ve recently used it on my discord/irc bot for web page scraping (instead of my previous regex horrors) and it is such bliss.

Release v0.7.4
This release adds nil input propagation to the extractors, a convenience which enables code like
def media_url(item) do
Meeseeks.one(item, css("enclosure")) |> Meeseeks.attr("url") ||
Meeseeks.one(item, css("media|content")) |> Meeseeks.attr("url")
end
The above will work correctly whether item has an enclosure element or not, whereas before it would have thrown an error when it tried piping nil into Meeseeks.attr("url").
I also fixed a bug related to CSS selector tokanization.

Release v0.7.5
This release fixes a fun bug (discovered by @aclemmensen) where meeseeks_html5ever was incorrectly panicking when it tried to call remove_from_parent on a node with no parent.
Thank you for your help, Asbjørn!

You’re very welcome! Thanks for making this library in the first place. It’s a pleasure to work with.
