Hi Vincent, I read this in htmlcleaner's forum, http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1935192&forum_id=6372457245. It seams that htmlcleaner can't handle the deprecated tags. So I think I can't use htmlcleaner to to transform deprecated tags in the "html clean" step, unless I use jdom. PS. I don't think jdom is a so bad way for now. Thanks Wang Ning
