Exception in html parser under Linux

Question

Hi all,
Following code is copied from Tech Tip 23Sep1999. I have compiled it and run it under Win98. It works fine for any uri. However, when I try to run it under Linux, it throws exceptions. I noticed that some web site can be parsered with the program in Linux but some can't. I wonder the different between those platforms. Anyone can tell me how to make the program works under Linux.
Rgds,

Answer 1

Support for CSS and clearly defined.Also Dictionary getDocumentProperties() is not properly exaplained meaning it doesnt give methods to get all the properties a HTML document can have.
