As a result, the > will become part of the text that follow, e.g. <i>Hello would cause getCueAsHTML() to return a DOM looking like <i>&gt;Hello. 56588 2 ian 2011-09-10 04:34:21 +0000 Sounds like a mere oversight. If so, it should be a trivial fix. 56790 3 ian 2011-09-14 22:13:06 +0000 > WebVTT tokenizer does not consume U+003C LESS-THAN SIGN (<) I don't follow. > The steps for U+003E GREATER-THAN SIGN character (>) say "abort these steps", > skipping over step 8 to advance the position in input.
