There are a few parsers that handle most of the html/js/etc with all of the tags, however I do not see any which actively filter and parse the content of a source data to selectively buffer or eliminate problem code (scripts, embed/flash/sw/etc, java, etc) and provide a user controlled dhtml based interface which completely and abstractly presents the content of the raw data.

In short, are there any fully sandboxed "web browsers" with pure dhtml early standards and accurate parsing of various html/etc into structured layers?

If such still exist (im sure they did in 1990s), they would likely be able to parse back out the containment structure into html and js code, but I have not seen anything recently, especially with abstraction.

Please advise ;)

A browser within a browser? If done right, it should be able to run itself, leading to browsers within browsers within browsers within browsers! It'd be browsers all the way down. Silliness abounds!

Seriously, you can write a HTML santiser pretty easy in JS, beyond that I don't see any point though.
