HTML Tidy  5.8.0
The HTACG Tidy HTML Project
External Public API

Detailed Description

The Public API is the API that LibTidy programmers must access in order to harness HTML Tidy as a library.

The API limits all exposure to internal structures and provides only accessors that return simple types such as C strings and integers, which makes it quite suitable for integration with any number of other languages.

Modules

 Basic Operations
 For an excellent example of how to invoke LibTidy, please consult console/tidy.c:main() for in-depth implementation details.
 
 Configuration Options
 Functions for getting and setting Tidy configuration options.
 
 Diagnostics and Repair
 After parsing the document, you can use these functions to attempt cleanup, repair, get additional diagnostics, and determine the document type.
 
 Document Parse
 Functions for parsing markup from a given input source, as well as string and filename functions for added convenience.
 
 Document Save Functions
 Save currently parsed document to the given output sink.
 
 Document Tree
 A parsed (and optionally repaired) document is represented by Tidy as a tree, much like a W3C DOM.
 
 I/O and Messages
 Tidy provides flexible I/O.
 
 Localization Support
 These functions help manage localization in Tidy.
 
 Memory Allocation
 Tidy can use a user-provided allocator for all memory allocations.
 
 Message Key Management
 These functions serve to manage message codes, i.e., codes that are used Tidy and communicated via its callback filters to represent reports and dialogue that Tidy emits.
 
 Opaque Types
 Instances of these types are returned by LibTidy API functions, however they are opaque; you cannot see into them, and must use accessor functions to access the contents.
 
 Public Enumerations
 Separated public enumerations header providing important indentifiers for LibTidy and internal users, as well as code-generator macros used to generate many of them.
