5Pod::Simple::XHTML -- format Pod as validating XHTML
6
7=head1 SYNOPSIS
8
9  use Pod::Simple::XHTML;
10
11  my $parser = Pod::Simple::XHTML->new();
12
13  ...
14
15  $parser->parse_file('path/to/file.pod');
16
17=head1 DESCRIPTION
18
19This class is a formatter that takes Pod and renders it as XHTML
20validating HTML.
21
22This is a subclass of L<Pod::Simple::Methody> and inherits all its
23methods. The implementation is entirely different than
24L<Pod::Simple::HTML>, but it largely preserves the same interface.
25
26=head2 Minimal code
27
28  use Pod::Simple::XHTML;
29  my $psx = Pod::Simple::XHTML->new;
30  $psx->output_string(\my $html);
31  $psx->parse_file('path/to/Module/Name.pm');
32  open my $out, '>', 'out.html' or die "Cannot open 'out.html': $!\n";
33  print $out $html;
34
35You can also control the character encoding and entities. For example, if
36you're sure that the POD is properly encoded (using the C<=encoding> command),
37you can prevent high-bit characters from being encoded as HTML entities and
38declare the output character set as UTF-8 before parsing, like so:
39
40  $psx->html_charset('UTF-8');
41  $psx->html_encode_chars('&<>">');

81=head1 METHODS
82
83Pod::Simple::XHTML offers a number of methods that modify the format of
84the HTML output. Call these after creating the parser object, but before
85the call to C<parse_file>:
86
87  my $parser = Pod::PseudoPod::HTML->new();
88  $parser->set_optional_param("value");
89  $parser->parse_file($file);
90
91=head2 perldoc_url_prefix
92
93In turning L<Foo::Bar> into http://whatever/Foo%3a%3aBar, what
94to put before the "Foo%3a%3aBar". The default value is
95"http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?".
96
97=head2 perldoc_url_postfix
98
99What to put after "Foo%3a%3aBar" in the URL. This option is not set by
100default.
101
102=head2 man_url_prefix
103
104In turning C<< L<crontab(5)> >> into http://whatever/man/1/crontab, what
105to put before the "1/crontab". The default value is
106"http://man.he.net/man".
107
108=head2 man_url_postfix
109
110What to put after "1/crontab" in the URL. This option is not set by default.
111
112=head2 title_prefix, title_postfix
113
114What to put before and after the title in the head. The values should
115already be &-escaped.
116
117=head2 html_css
118
119  $parser->html_css('path/to/style.css');
120
121The URL or relative path of a CSS file to include. This option is not
122set by default.
123
124=head2 html_javascript
125
126The URL or relative path of a JavaScript file to pull in. This option is
127not set by default.
128
129=head2 html_doctype
130
131A document type tag for the file. This option is not set by default.
132
133=head2 html_charset
134
135The charater set to declare in the Content-Type meta tag created by default
136for C<html_header_tags>. Note that this option will be ignored if the value of
137C<html_header_tags> is changed. Defaults to "ISO-8859-1".
138
139=head2 html_header_tags
140
141Additional arbitrary HTML tags for the header of the document. The
142default value is just a content type header tag:
143
144  <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
145
146Add additional meta tags here, or blocks of inline CSS or JavaScript
147(wrapped in the appropriate tags).
148
149=head3 html_encode_chars
150
151A string containing all characters that should be encoded as HTML entities,
152specified using the regular expression character class syntax (what you find
153within brackets in regular expressions). This value will be passed as the
154second argument to the C<encode_entities> fuction of L<HTML::Entities>. IF
155L<HTML::Entities> is not installed, then any characters other than C<&<>"'>
156will be encoded numerically.
157
158=head2 html_h_level
159
160This is the level of HTML "Hn" element to which a Pod "head1" corresponds.  For
161example, if C<html_h_level> is set to 2, a head1 will produce an H2, a head2
162will produce an H3, and so on.
163
164=head2 default_title
165
166Set a default title for the page if no title can be determined from the
167content. The value of this string should already be &-escaped.
168
169=head2 force_title
170
171Force a title for the page (don't try to determine it from the content).
172The value of this string should already be &-escaped.
173
174=head2 html_header, html_footer
175
176Set the HTML output at the beginning and end of each file. The default
177header includes a title, a doctype tag (if C<html_doctype> is set), a
178content tag (customized by C<html_header_tags>), a tag for a CSS file
179(if C<html_css> is set), and a tag for a Javascript file (if
180C<html_javascript> is set). The default footer simply closes the C<html>
181and C<body> tags.
182
183The options listed above customize parts of the default header, but
184setting C<html_header> or C<html_footer> completely overrides the
185built-in header or footer. These may be useful if you want to use
186template tags instead of literal HTML headers and footers or are
187integrating converted POD pages in a larger website.
188
189If you want no headers or footers output in the HTML, set these options
190to the empty string.
191
192=head2 index
193
194Whether to add a table-of-contents at the top of each page (called an
195index for the sake of tradition).
196
197=head2 anchor_items
198
199Whether to anchor every definition C<=item> directive. This needs to be
200enabled if you want to be able to link to specific C<=item> directives, which
201are output as C<< <dt> >> elements. Disabled by default.
202
203=head2 backlink
204
205Whether to turn every =head1 directive into a link pointing to the top
206of the page (specifically, the opening body tag).

275}
276
277#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
278
279=head2 handle_text
280
281This method handles the body of text within any element: it's the body
282of a paragraph, or everything between a "=begin" tag and the
283corresponding "=end" tag, or the text within an L entity, etc. You would
284want to override this if you are adding a custom element type that does
285more than just display formatted text. Perhaps adding a way to generate
286HTML tables from an extended version of POD.
287
288So, let's say you want to add a custom element called 'foo'. In your
289subclass's C<new> method, after calling C<SUPER::new> you'd call:
290
291  $new->accept_targets_as_text( 'foo' );
292
293Then override the C<start_for> method in the subclass to check for when
294"$flags->{'target'}" is equal to 'foo' and set a flag that marks that
295you're in a foo block (maybe "$self->{'in_foo'} = 1"). Then override the
296C<handle_text> method to check for the flag, and pass $text to your
297custom subroutine to construct the HTML output for 'foo' elements,
298something like:
299
300  sub handle_text {
301      my ($self, $text) = @_;
302      if ($self->{'in_foo'}) {
303          $self->{'scratch'} .= build_foo_html($text);
304      } else {
305          $self->{'scratch'} .= $text;
306      }
307  }
308
309=head2 accept_targets_as_html
310
311This method behaves like C<accept_targets_as_text>, but also marks the region
312as one whose content should be emitted literally, without HTML entity escaping
313or wrapping in a C<div> element.

616Resolves a POD link target (typically a module or POD file name) and section
617name to a URL. The resulting link will be returned for the above examples as:

620  http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?perlpodspec
621  #SYNOPSIS

623Note that when there is only a section argument the URL will simply be a link
624to a section in the current document.

654Note that the first argument is required. The section number will be parsed
655from it, and if it's missing will default to 1. The second argument is
656currently ignored, as L<man.he.net|http://man.he.net> does not currently
657include linkable IDs or anchor names in its pages. Subclass to link to a

678This method turns an arbitrary string into a valid XHTML ID attribute value.
679The rules enforced, following
680L<http://webdesign.about.com/od/htmltags/a/aa031707.htm>, are:
681
682=over
683
684=item *
685
686The id must start with a letter (a-z or A-Z)
687
688=item *
689
690All subsequent characters can be letters, numbers (0-9), hyphens (-),
691underscores (_), colons (:), and periods (.).
692
693=item *
694
695Each id must be unique within the document.
696
697=back
698
699In addition, the returned value will be unique within the context of the
700Pod::Simple::XHTML object unless a second argument is passed a true value. ID
701attributes should always be unique within a single XHTML document, but pass
702the true value if you are creating not an ID but a URL hash to point to
703an ID (i.e., if you need to put the "#foo" in C<< <a href="#foo">foo</a> >>.

727Called by L<Pod::Simple::HTMLBatch> so that the class has a chance to
728initialize the converter. Internally it sets the C<batch_mode> property to
729true and sets C<batch_mode_current_level()>, but Pod::Simple::XHTML does not
730currently use those features. Subclasses might, though.
