Ability to keep inline HTML in extracted content about boilerpipe HOT 6 CLOSED

See the de.l3s.boilerpipe.sax.HTMLHighlighter class. It highlights the blocks 
that are being kept.

If you modify it to only call "html.append" when "highlight == true" you should 
get what you want.
Would be a nice contribution!

Marking as Type-Enhancement.

Super. My Java is pretty bad, but I'll give this a go in the next few days.

Hi, I have tried to use html.append only when highlight == true, but it doesn't 
seam
to work as expected. HTMLHighligher is a nice starting point.
If I manage to write something that would do the job, I will send.

See the new HTMLHighlightDemo in 1.1.

Just comment-out the existing HTMLHighlighter (newHighlightingInstance) and 
replace it by the other one below, i.e.
final HTMLHighlighter hh = HTMLHighlighter.newExtractingInstance();

This should give you a clean HTML representation of the extracted text. No 
images, though.

It would be useful to have the HTMLHighlighter to take raw HTML string as well, 
i.e.,

public String process(final String html, final BoilerpipeExtractor extractor)
