Method ParseAttributeValue

Source/Engine/Utilities/HtmlParser.cs:301–333

Parses an attribute value. The current position should be the first non-whitespace character following the equal sign. We terminate the name or value if we encounter a new line. This seems to be the best way of handling errors such as values missing closing quotes, etc. Returns the parsed value string.
