i'm have used the c program html2txt for this test and i have searched
the 
original htmlfile for a line break inside the tag, but there is no break
inside...

then i use the LEX implementation of htuml2txt and there is the same
problem...

also the german umlaut conversion is somtimes correct and sometimes not.
with both, the LEX and the C implementation of the program.
