HTML Parsing Errors

[baselsoftwaredev]

Problem

The bevy_hui HTML loader was failing with [HTML ERROR][X] of kind Tag errors when parsing component templates. The root cause was improper HTML formatting that created ambiguous tag structures.

The issue occurred due to bad formatting of the tags. Prettier in default setting wasn't properly fixing the formatting.

<text font_size="20" font_color="#ffcc00" margin="0 0 15px 0"
  >Building</text
>

quick solution:

use proper formatting

long:

<text 
    font_size="20" 
    font_color="#ffcc00" 
    margin="0 0 15px 0">
    Civilizations
</text>

short:

<text font_size="20" font_color="#ffcc00">Civilizations</text>

for possible long term solution

• add possible solution for those kind of parsing errors in the error log output
• allow the library to parse those of html inputs
• perhaps add something to the document?

let me know if you are busy, i can do the above. if not this open issue may allow some other lost soul find why their components are not compiling

You struck a nerve. The Tag mismatch/syntax errors are very annoying to deal with, since they lack proper error texts and line/col information. I struggled in the past to get it right with the current parser implementation and forgot about it. Your case should not be an error in the first place. I'll look into it in the bevy 0.17 update cycle. In the meantime, you are free to do as you see fit. I appreciate any contribution.
