92 of beginning and ending tag and of text between these two tags).
93
94 It is independent from wxHtmlWindow and can be used as stand-alone parser.

97 are not statically shared by all instances but are created for each
98 wxHtmlParser instance. The reason is that the handler may contain
99 document-specific temporary data used during parsing (e.g. complicated
