Let us know if this doesn't answer your question:

The HTML parser is old and broken.  But it knows nothing of encodings
so it will just index 8-bit chars regardless of what they are.  But
that parser does make more mistakes than the libxml2 parser and many
features are not supported in HTML that are in the HTML2 parser.
