During the process of making my masters thesis I
discovered the need for a working getpos() in
sgmllib.py. As it is now you can successfully call it
since it is inherited from markupbase.py but you will
always get the answer (1,0) since it is never updated.

To fix this one needs to change the goahead function.
This is my own implementation of this change, in part
influenced by the "sister" goahead-function  in
HTLMParser.py:


************************************
def goahead(self, end):
        rawdata = self.rawdata
        i = 0
        k = 0
        n = len(rawdata)
        tmp=0
        while i < n:
            if self.nomoretags:
                self.handle_data(rawdata[i:n])
                i = n
                break
            match = interesting.search(rawdata, i)
            if match: j = match.start()
            else: j = n
            if i < j:
                self.handle_data(rawdata[i:j])
                tmp = self.updatepos(i, j)
            i = j
            if i == n: break
            startswith = rawdata.startswith
            if rawdata[i] == '<':
                if starttagopen.match(rawdata, i):
                    if self.literal:
                        self.handle_data(rawdata[i])
                        tmp = self.updatepos(i, i+1)
                        i = i+1
                        continue
                    k = self.parse_starttag(i)
                    if k < 0: break
                    tmp = self.updatepos(i, k)
                    i = k
                    continue
                if rawdata.startswith("</", i):
                    k = self.parse_endtag(i)
                    if k < 0: break
                    tmp = self.updatepos(i, k)
                    i = k
                    self.literal = 0
                    continue
                if self.literal:
                    if n > (i + 1):

****************************

The major diffrence is the updatepos functions. It
seems to work fine, or at least it has worked fine for
me so far.
