StackOverflowError when calling Element.cssSelector() on deeply nested element

[richardmorleysmith]

As per title!

Here is a program which reproduces the issue:

import org.jsoup.nodes.Element;

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Element element = new Element("element");

        // Create a long chain of elements
        for (int i = 0; i < 5000; i++) {
            Element elem2 = new Element("element" + i);
            element.appendChild(elem2);
            element = elem2;
        }
        
        // Crashes with StackOverflowError
        System.out.println(element.cssSelector());;
    }
}

Thanks, good find! Fixed. Did you find this in real-world HTML?

Thanks Jonathan! We did yes, but I don't have the site or the original HTML.. would've been interesting to see it.
