Depending on exactly what you want, TagSoup may be of interest to you. It is lazy, but it doesn't return a tree. It is very tollerant of errors, and will simply never "fail to parse" something.

That's an interesting option. It could be used as a lexer for a full-blown HTML parser. Sometimes I need the tree structure. But why does this simple piece of code needs -fglasgow-exts? Thanks for the package and the hint! Henning
