gRegorLove Hmm, realizing some of the limitations of following the spec precisely when using xpath queries in php-mf2.
#
gRegorLove Poorly worded: the limitations are with the xpath approach
#
gRegorLove Using this example: https://github.com/microformats/microformats2-parsing/issues/11#issuecomment-352281134
#
Loqi [sknebel] We just encountered this difference in handling between `mf2py` and `php-mf2` while trying to help debug Bridgy on a WordPress site with the following structure: ```html <body class="h-entry"> <div id="page" class="hfeed site wrap"> <h1 cla...
#
gRegorLove The spec says "parse child elements (document order) by..." but php-mf2 is using xpath to pull out only the relevant elements, by mf2 prefix
#
gRegorLove So currently mf2 finds the mf2 root, runs an xpath for mf2 properties...
#
gRegorLove But to follow the spec precisely, and get the expected result, it should process the first child node, the <div class="hfeed"> and recurse
#
gRegorLove I'll try bumping up 'check for child mf' in the process before property parsing and see how it goes.

gRegorLove Just for parsing convenience, it does make me wonder if mf1 roots inside mf2 should be ignored, haha
#
Loqi hahaha

Zegnat Hmm, the spec pretty much assumes you are traversing the DOM rather than taking shortcuts, gRegorLove ;)

Zegnat If any Python-programmers want to have a look: https://github.com/tommorris/mf2py/issues/84#issuecomment-355804316

Loqi [tommorris] Thanks for reporting this @Zegnat. I currently don't have a lot of time to work on mf2py, so I can't promise to implement it soon, but I'll try and find time to implement this change at some point.
