MKDoc::XML(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation MKDoc::XML(3)

MKDoc::XML - The MKDoc XML Toolkit

This is an article, not a module.

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>.

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.

MKDoc::XML::Tokenizer splits your XML / XHTML files into a list of MKDoc::XML::Token objects using a single regex.

MKDoc::XML::TreeBuilder sits on top of MKDoc::XML::Tokenizer and builds parsed trees out of your XML / XHTML data.

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.

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.

MKDoc::XML::Decode is a pluggable, configurable entity expander module which currently supports html entities, numerical entities and basic xml entities.

MKDoc::XML::Encode does the exact reverse operation as MKDoc::XML::Decode.

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.
