Tue 07 Jul 2009 04:12:37 AM UTC, comment #4: Documentation adjusted in bde3956c9b1d. Punting "regression fix" aspect 'til later.	Micah Cowan <micahcowan>
Mon 06 Jul 2009 06:48:46 PM UTC, comment #3: Assertion failure has been fixed in 3d394ba07616.	Steven Schubiger <schubiger>
Thu 02 Jul 2009 07:05:09 PM UTC, comment #2: Passing an html file to -i without --force-html now results in an assertion failure in mainline. That definitely needs to be fixed before release.	Micah Cowan <micahcowan>
Thu 21 Aug 2008 11:54:38 PM UTC, comment #1: It'll be a while before I'd get to fixing the regression (which itself is pretty old), perhaps it's best just to update the docs to reflect current behavior, so it's at least accurate. Can leave the bug open to retarget the behavioral change for a later date.	Micah Cowan <micahcowan>
Mon 08 Oct 2007 11:02:17 PM UTC, original submission: Docs claim that --force-html is unnecessary when feeding HTML files as the input for -i, but Wget seems to have trouble parsing without it. I think this may be a regression, as I think the input-file code was rewritten sometime in the last couple years.	Micah Cowan <micahcowan>
