Subject: Allow recognition of attributes even if they don't have space in front
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.2b2~278
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dfd8954e36b997c2f6adfa34df77bab92db6381d;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

Allow recognition of attributes even if they don't have space in front
of them.  I.e., '<a name="foo"href="bar.html">' will now have two
attributes recognized.

Based on comments from newgroup.
