We don’t know the use case.

Maybe the questioner is also in full control of the HTML creation and they don’t need a parser for all possible HTML edge cases.





Maybe they are, but they would also need to ensure a well-defined subset of HTML and also show that the subset is a reglar (Chomsky Type 3) grammar.

It seems that even the very conceptually simple example given by the questioner is impossible.
