Purpose
This program detects, is a character at a given index in a given string being a closing of an attribute. In healthy code, that’s normally a double quotes character.
This program is aimed at fixing seriously broken HTML code — missing closing quotes, mismatching closing quotes, swapped quotes and unencoded “content” quotes as a part of attribute’s value.
It’s driving the codsen-tokenizer which in turn powers codsen-parser which in turn powers emlint.
For healthy HTML code, however, finding the closing double quotes is a trivial task.
