MKDoc::XML(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation MKDoc::XML(3pm) NAME
MKDoc::XML - The MKDoc XML Toolkit SYNOPSIS
This is an article, not a module. SUMMARY
MKDoc is a web content management system written in Perl which focuses on standards compliance, accessiblity and usability issues, and multi-lingual websites. At MKDoc Ltd we have decided to gradually break up our existing commercial software into a collection of completely independent, well- documented, well-tested open-source CPAN modules. Ultimately we want MKDoc code to be a coherent collection of module distributions, yet each distribution should be usable and useful in itself. MKDoc::XML is part of this effort. You could help us and turn some of MKDoc's code into a CPAN module. You can take a look at the existing code at http://download.mkdoc.org/. If you are interested in some functionality which you would like to see as a standalone CPAN module, send an email to <mkdoc-modules@lists.webarch.co.uk>. DISCLAIMER
MKDoc::XML is a low level XML library. MKDoc::XML::* modules do not make sure your XML is well-formed. MKDoc::XML::* modules can be used to work with somehow broken XML. MKDoc::XML::* modules should not be used as high-level parsers with general purpose XML unless you know what you're doing. WHAT'S IN THE BOX XML tokenizer MKDoc::XML::Tokenizer splits your XML / XHTML files into a list of MKDoc::XML::Token objects using a single regex. XML tree builder MKDoc::XML::TreeBuilder sits on top of MKDoc::XML::Tokenizer and builds parsed trees out of your XML / XHTML data. XML stripper MKDoc::XML::Stripper objects removes unwanted markup from your XML / HTML data. Useful to remove all those nasty presentational tags or 'style' attributes from your XHTML data for example. XML tagger MKDoc::XML::Tagger module matches expressions in XML / XHTML documents and tag them appropriately. For example, you could automatically hyperlink certain glossary words or add <abbr> tags based on a dictionary of abbreviations and acronyms. XML entity decoder MKDoc::XML::Decode is a pluggable, configurable entity expander module which currently supports html entities, numerical entities and basic xml entities. XML entity encoder MKDoc::XML::Encode does the exact reverse operation as MKDoc::XML::Decode. XML Dumper MKDoc::XML::Dumper serializes arbitrarily complex perl structures into XML strings. It is also able of doing the reverse operation, i.e. deserializing an XML string into a perl structure. AUTHOR
