i have written a slighly bastardized version of the class web page
which is given as an example of how to use the html tokenizer.

What I've written is:

   def parse(host)
   dict = { }
   @body= host.getHTML()
   if !@body
    return
   end
     theTags = ['select','input']
        for x in theTags do
          tokenizer = HTMLTokenizer.new(@body)
             while tag = tokenizer.getTag(x)
               name = tag.attr_hash['name']
               type = tag.attr_hash['type']
                if name != nil then
                 dict[type]=name
                end # if
             end# while
       end# for x
    return dict
   end    # end parse

My problem is that parse will return all tag attributes of "type" (ie
"checkbox, "button", "hidden") except for those which are of type
"text". I haven't been able to figure out where I'm going wrong.
