Description-en: simple HTML/CSS1 parser library for C++ (development)
htmlcxx is a simple non-validating CSS1 and HTML parser for C++. Although
there are several other html parsers available, htmlcxx has some
characteristics that make it unique:
.
* STL like navigation of DOM tree, using excellent tree.hh library from
Kasper Peeters
* It is possible to reproduce exactly, character by character, the original
document from the parse tree
* Bundled CSS parser
* Optional parsing of attributes
* C++ code that looks like C++ (not so true anymore)
* Offsets of tags/elements in the original document are stored in the nodes
of the DOM tree
.
The parsing politics of htmlcxx were created trying to mimic Mozilla Firefox
(http://www.mozilla.org) behavior. So you should expect parse trees similar to
those create by Firefox. However, differently from Firefox, htmlcxx does not
insert non-existent stuff in your html. Therefore, serializing the DOM tree
gives exactly the same bytes contained in the original HTML document.
.
This package contains files required for developing software that makes use of
htmlcxx.
