parsing html / xml (more)

Here's another case that shows up often in html, but is illegal in xml, that I would need to parse: meta tags, <p> tags, <hr> tags, and other "singletons". <HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html"> </HEAD> xml_parse would give an error, because the HEAD block is being closed with a still-open META "block".

Ie calling a method for every tag encountered and so on. The xml parsing methods don't seem to be forgiving enough for much of the html that's out there. For example, many html files have tags like this: <TABLE border=0> but xml_parse() will choke on it because there are no quotes around the "0". Also html tags are, in practice, case insensitive, so this is found in many html documents: <B>This is bold</b> but xml_parse() doesn't like it because it expects the opening and closing tags to be same-case. Are there other functions or libraries I'm not aware of that help in parsing html? Or some options in xml_parse to get by these problems? Thanks in advance.
