Hi,

Aside: you don’t need to use “get-string-all”; “xml->sxml” can read
directly from a port.

I fetched the document.  Here’s the part that it barfs on:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>1am | Quickdocs</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/LigatureSymbols/style.css" />
  
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="/css/main.css">

  <script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="/js/underscore-min.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="/js/quickdocs.js"></script>
</head>
…
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The second “link” tag opens but is never closed.  This may be valid
HTML, but it is not valid XML, which is what xml->sxml expects.
