Free html software for linux

HTML TIDY is a free utility to fix mistakes made while editing HTML and to automatically tidy up sloppy editing into nicely layed out markup. It also works great on the atrociously hard to read markup generated by specialized HTML editors and conversion tools, and can help you identify where you need to pay further attention on making your pages more accessible to people with disabilities.
When editing HTML its easy to make mistakes. Wouldnt it be nice if there was a simple way to fix these mistakes automatically and tidy up sloppy editing into nicely layed out markup? Well now there is! Dave Raggetts HTML TIDY is a free utility for doing just that. It also works great on the atrociously hard to read markup generated by specialized HTML editors and conversion tools, and can help you identify where you need to pay further attention on making your pages more accessible to people with disabilities.
Tidy is able to fix up a wide range of problems and to bring to your attention things that you need to work on yourself. Each item found is listed with the line number and column so that you can see where the problem lies in your markup. Tidy wont generate a cleaned up version when there are problems that it cant be sure of how to handle. These are logged as "errors" rather than "warnings".
Dave Raggett has now passed the baton for maintaining Tidy to a group of volunteers working together as part of the open source community at Source Forge. The source code continues to be available under an open source license, and you are encouraged to pass on bug reports and enhancement requests at http://tidy.sourceforge.net.
If you find HTML Tidy useful and you would like to say thanks, then please send me a (paper) postcard or other souvenir from the area in which you live along with a few words on what you are using Tidy for. It will be fun to map out where Tidy users are to be found! My postal address is given at the end of this file.
The W3C public email list devoted to HTML Tidy is: . To subscribe send an email to html-tidy-request@w3.org with the word subscribe in the subject line (include the word unsubscribe if you want to unsubscribe). The archive for this list is accessible online. If you would like to contact the developers, or you just want to submit an enhancement request or a bug report, please visit http://tidy.sourceforge.net.
Tidy can now perform wonders on HTML saved from Microsoft Word 2000! Word bulks out HTML files with stuff for round-tripping presentation between HTML and Word. If you are more concerned about using HTML on the Web, check out Tidys "Word-2000" config option! Of course Tidy does a good job on Word97 files as well!

HTML::DWT is a Perl module with DreamWeaver HTML Template.

INSTALLATION

Unzip/tar the archive:
tar xvfz HTML-DWT-2.08

Create the makefile
perl Makefile.PL

Make the module (must have root access to install)
make
make test
make install

SYNOPSIS

use HTML::DWT;

$template = new HTML::DWT(filename => "file.dwt");
%dataHash = (
doctitle => DWT Generated,
leftcont => some HTML content here
);
$html = $template->fill(%dataHash);

or

use HTML::DWT qw(:Template);

$template = new HTML::DWT(filename => "file.dwt");
$template->param(
doctitle => < title >DWT Generated< /title >,
leftcont => Some HTML content here
);
$html = $template->output();

A perl module designed to parse a simple HTML template file generated by Macromedia Dreamweaver and replace fields in the template with values from a CGI script.

Pod::Html is a Perl module to convert pod files to HTML.

SYNOPSIS

use Pod::Html;
pod2html([options]);

Converts files from pod format (see perlpod) to HTML format. It can automatically generate indexes and cross-references, and it keeps a cache of things it knows how to cross-reference.

HTML::Clean module cleans up HTML code for web browsers, not humans.

SYNOPSIS

use HTML::Clean;
$h = new HTML::Clean($filename); # or..
$h = new HTML::Clean($htmlcode);

$h->compat();
$h->strip();
$data = $h->data();
print $$data;

The HTML::Clean module encapsulates a number of common techniques for minimizing the size of HTML files. You can typically save between 10% and 50% of the size of a HTML file using these methods. It provides the following features:

Remove unneeded whitespace (begining of line, etc)
Remove unneeded META elements.
Remove HTML comments (except for styles, javascript and SSI)
Replace tags with equivilant shorter tags (< strong > --> < b >)
etc.

The entire proces is configurable, so you can pick and choose what you want to clean.

HTML::Lint can check for HTML errors in a string or file.

SYNOPSIS

my $lint = HTML::Lint->new;
$lint->only_types( HTML::Lint::STRUCTURE );

$lint->parse( $data );
$lint->parse_file( $filename );

my $error_count = $lint->errors;

foreach my $error ( $lint->errors ) {
print $error->as_string, "n";
}

HTML::Lint also comes with a wrapper program called weblint that handles linting from the command line:

$ weblint http://www.cnn.com/
http://www.cnn.com/ (395:83) < IMG SRC="spacer.gif" > tag has no HEIGHT and WIDTH attributes.
http://www.cnn.com/ (395:83) < IMG SRC="goofus.gif" > does not have ALT text defined
http://www.cnn.com/ (396:217) Unknown element < nobr >
http://www.cnn.com/ (396:241) < /nobr > with no opening < nobr >
http://www.cnn.com/ (842:7) target attribute in < a > is repeated

And finally, you can also get Apache::HTML::Lint that passes any mod_perl-generated code through HTML::Lint and get it dumped into your Apache error_log.

[Mon Jun 3 14:03:31 2002] [warn] /foo.pl (1:45) < /p > with no opening < p >
[Mon Jun 3 14:03:31 2002] [warn] /foo.pl (1:49) Unknown element < gronk >
[Mon Jun 3 14:03:31 2002] [warn] /foo.pl (1:56) Unknown attribute "x" for tag < table >

HTML::YaTmpl is yet another template processor.

SYNOPSIS

use HTML::YaTmpl;

my $t=HTML::YaTmpl->new( file=>template.tmpl );
$t->evaluate( key1=>$value1,
key2=>[$val21, $val22, ...]
... );
$t->evaluate_to_file( $outputfilename,
key1=>$value1,
key2=>[$val21, $val22, ...]
... );

ABSTRACT

HTML::YaTmpl aims mainly to provide a HTML template processor that saves the template writer typing.

There are general template processors like Text::Template and tools to embed perl in HTML like HTML::Embperl or HTML template processors like HTML::Template. Why have I decided to start yet another? Well, Text::Template is not really convenient when it comes to process repeating data records like HTML tables. With HTML::Embperl no professional "WEB Designer" will be able to "enhance" the pages. And HTML::Template enforces a strict division of design and programming. Thus, it enforces changes to the programming logic even if you only want to exchange a long number like 2835067264068365493 with a more human readable 2,835,067,264,068,365,493.

HTML::YaTmpl attempts to make simple things easy but complexity feasible.

HTML::Simple is a simple, dependency free module for generating HTML (and XML).

SYNOPSIS

Note: It turns out that TOMC owns the HTML::Simple namespace so Ive moved development of this module to HTML::Tiny. Please use HTML::Tiny in preference to this module.

use HTML::Simple;

my $h = HTML::Simple->new;

# Generate a simple page
print $h->html(
[
$h->head( $h->title( Sample page ) ),
$h->body(
[
$h->h1( { class => main }, Sample page ),
$h->p( Hello, World, { class => detail }, Second para )
]
)
]
);

# Outputs
< html>
< head>
< title>Sample page< /title>
< /head>
< body>
< h1 class="main">Sample page< /h1>
< p>Hello, World< /p>
< p class="detail">Second para< /p>
< /body>
< /html>
