Hpricot chokes on this when I try it.

   require 'rubygems'							
   require 'hpricot'							
   require 'open-uri'							
   Hpricot(open('http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,1765785,00.asp')).to_html

If I understand, some methods (to_html, at least) in the version
of Hpricot I have (whatever was there yesterday morning) doesn't
like ugly "html" like "<input type=checkbox checked>" where apparently
attribute values end up being null.

I can work around it by putting
    aval ||= ''
in STag in tag.rb
