[LRUG] was( Re: Meeting August 8th and September 4th) now QA and 'fuzzy' HTML

I meant something more like

<html>
  <..>
    <title>title text</title>
  <..>
    <H1>title text</H1>
  <..>
</html>

OR

<ul class="trail">
  <li id=".*">
    <a href=".*">.*</a>
    <p class="linkdescription">.*</p>
  </li>+
</ul>

And you run this against an XHTML page and it matches to the above xml
regexps.  You could even define variables in your blob, and get those
returned to you so you can check that the values are ok

And on the pedestal these words appear: 
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: 
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains: round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare, 
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
