# Breaking: #72384 - Removed deprecated code from HtmlParser

See [forge#72384](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/72384)

## Description

The following methods have been removed from HtmlParser:

-   `getSubpart()`
-   `substituteSubpart()`
-   `substituteSubpartArray()`
-   `substituteMarker()`
-   `substituteMarkerArray()`
-   `substituteMarkerAndSubpartArrayRecursive()`
-   `XHTML_clean()`
-   `processTag()`
-   `processContent()`

The following method has been removed from RteHtmlParser:

-   `evalWriteFile`

The TSconfig option `xhtml_cleaning` has been removed as well.

## Impact

Using the methods above directly in any third party extension will result in a fatal error. Setting the xhtml
processing option when parsing HTML has no effect anymore as well.

## Affected Installations

Instances which use custom calls to HtmlParser via the methods above.

## Migration

`getSubpart()` use `MarkerBasedTemplateService::getSubpart()` instead
`substituteSubpart()` call `MarkerBasedTemplateService::substituteSubpart()` instead
`substituteSubpartArray()` call `MarkerBasedTemplateService::substituteSubpartArray()` instead
`substituteMarker()` call `MarkerBasedTemplateService::substituteMarker()` instead
`substituteMarkerArray()` call `MarkerBasedTemplateService::substituteMarkerArray()` instead
`substituteMarkerAndSubpartArrayRecursive()` call `MarkerBasedTemplateService::substituteMarkerAndSubpartArrayRecursive()` instead
`XHTML_clean()` call `HtmlParser::HTMLcleaner()` instead
