Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 98 by nikolay.panov: Encoding issue: 'ascii' codec instead of appropriate one. http://code.google.com/p/html5lib/issues/detail?id=98
This issue is related with the following sentence in the docs: "If no
encoding can be found and the chardet library is available, an attempt will
be made to sniff the encoding from the byte pattern "
* What steps will reproduce the problem?
>>> html=fetch_url('http://www.ixbt.com/news/soft/index.shtml?11/72/39')
>>> p =
html5lib.HTMLParser(tree=html5lib.treebuilders.getTreeBuilder("beautifulsoup"))
>>> soup = p.parse(html)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/home/niksite/lib/site-python/html5lib/html5parser.py", line 177,
in parse
self._parse(stream, innerHTML=False, encoding=encoding)
File "/home/niksite/lib/site-python/html5lib/html5parser.py", line 93, in

self.mainLoop()

self.phase.processStartTag(token["name"], token["data"])

self.startTagHandler[name](name, attributes)
File "/home/niksite/lib/site-python/html5lib/html5parser.py", line 605,
in startTagMeta
data = inputstream.EncodingBytes(attributes["content"])
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position
12-18: ordinal not in range(128)
>>> chardet.detect(html)
{'confidence': 0.94890270449856784, 'encoding': 'windows-1251'}
* What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
As we can see, chardet successfully detect the 'windows-1251' encoding of
the html document provided.
Why html5lib try to use 'ascii' codec?
