Description James Lemon 2007-07-30 00:42:03 UTC 
The page on my site http://www.apnic.net/community/presentations/nirs.html because of the following error message:

Line 26, Column 6: 39 EST | © 1999 - 2007 APNIC Pty.
<ul>

Line 26 and the surrounding area is valid mark-up (a nested <ul> within an <li>).
Comment 1 Olivier Thereaux 2007-07-30 06:16:08 UTC 
Ack, this is a bug. It looks like our filtering of the XML parser's output is interpreting the time (:08:13) as error metadata. 

Parsing of the output of XML::LibXML needs to be tightened.
Comment 2 Olivier Thereaux 2007-07-30 06:26:06 UTC 
This patch should fix the issue.

Will be in the next release, after some extra testing.
