Cannot run Xpath in http request responses having <!DOCTYPE>

I've got problem running "http request" step with testrunner under Centos (linux) but same step passes on Windows system. Under windows "Xpath" assertions work but under Centos they always fail. ...

Alright, seems that Xpath does not seem to work under some linux distros when DOCTYPE element in HTML response is unclosed

so 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">


should be to get Xpath assertions working
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd" />


it is strange that under Windows this does not seem to bother java xml parser
