XPath text extraction (e.g. normalize-space() over a content container) returns a node's full string-value, which includes descendant text nodes inside nested <script> and <style> elements. Sites that inject JSON-LD or other markup via client-side JS directly into a content container (as seen on maybelline.com.tr, where BreadcrumbList/HowTo/Article JSON-LD ended up inside schema:articleBody) leak that markup into any graph-sync mapping that extracts text from the container. HtmlConverter already strips comment and processing-instruction nodes before XPath mappings run; extend the same pass to remove <script> and <style> elements so their text never reaches XPath-based extraction.

Hey Rastko, the
seems generic enough that this change shouldn’t necessarily be applied there. It seems to me that it should be the responsibility of the consumer of that XHTML to eventually strip/skip undesired tags. What’s your reading on this? |
