Erratum

Erroneous title field in WAT records

Originally reported by

.

The "Title" extracted in WAT records to the JSON path `Envelope > Payload-Metadata > HTTP-Response-Metadata > HTML-Metadata > Head > Title` is not the content included in the <title> element in the HTML header (<head> element) if the page contains further <title> elements in the page body. The content of the last <title> element is written to the WAT "Title". This bug was observed if the HTML page includes embedded SVG graphics.

The issue was reported by the user Robert Waksmunski:
