# htmlparse.tcl --
#
#       This file implements a simple HTML parsing library in Tcl.
#       It may take advantage of parsers coded in C in the future.
#
#       The functionality here is a subset of the

#
#       The main restriction is that all Tk-related code in the above
#       was left out of the code here. It is expected that this code
#       will go into a 'tklib' in the future.

# htmlparse::parse --
#
#       This command is the basic parser for HTML. It takes a HTML
#       string, parses it and invokes a command prefix for every tag
#       encountered. It is not necessary for the HTML to be valid for
#       this parser to function. It is the responsibility of the
#       command invoked for every tag to check this. Another
#       responsibility of the invoked command is the handling of tag
#       attributes and character entities (escaped characters). The
#       parser provides the un-interpreted tag attributes to the
#       invoked command to aid in the former, and the package at large
#       provides a helper command, '::htmlparse::mapEscapes', to aid
#       in the handling of the latter. The parser *does* ignore
#       leading DOCTYPE declarations and all valid HTML comments it
#       encounters.
#
#       All information beyond the HTML string itself is specified via
#       options, these are explained below.
#
#       To help understanding the options some more background
#       information about the parser.
#
#       It is capable to detect incomplete tags in the HTML string
#       given to it. Under normal circumstances this will cause the
#       parser to throw an error, but if the option '-incvar' is used
#       to specify a global (or namespace) variable the parser will
#       store the incomplete part of the input into this variable
#       instead. This will aid greatly in the handling of
#       incrementally arriving HTML as the parser will handle whatever
#       he can and defer the handling of the incomplete part until
#       more data has arrived.
#
#       Another feature of the parser are its two possible modes of
#       operation. The normal mode is activated if the option '-queue'
#       is not present on the command line invoking the parser. If it
#       is present the parser will go into the incremental mode instead.
#
#       The main difference is that a parser in normal mode will
#       immediately invoke the command prefix for each tag it
#       encounters. In incremental mode however the parser will
#       generate a number of scripts which invoke the command prefix
#       for groups of tags in the HTML string and then store these
#       scripts in the specified queue. It is then the responsibility
#       of the caller of the parser to ensure the execution of the
#       scripts in the queue.
#
#       Note: The queue objecct given to the parser has to provide the
#       same interface as the queue defined in tcllib -> struct. This
#       does for example mean that all queues created via that part of
#       tcllib can be immediately used here. Still, the queue doesn't
#       have to come from tcllib -> struct as long as the same
#       interface is provided.
#
#       In both modes the parser will return an empty string to the
#       caller.
#
#       To a parser in incremental mode the option '-split' can be
#       given and will specify the size of the groups he creates. In
#       other words, -split 5 means that each of the generated scripts
#       will invoke the command prefix for 5 consecutive tags in the
#       HTML string. A parser in normal mode will ignore this option
#       and its value.
#
#       The option '-vroot' specifies a virtual root tag. A parser in
#       normal mode will invoke the command prefix for it immediately
#       before and after he processes the tags in the HTML, thus
#       simulating that the HTML string is enclosed in a <vroot>
#       </vroot> combination. In incremental mode however the parser
#       is unable to provide the closing virtual root as he never
#       knows when the input is complete. In this case the first
#       script generated by each invocation of the parser will contain
#       an invocation of the command prefix for the virtual root as
#       its first command.
#
#       Interface to the command prefix:
#
#       In normal mode the parser will invoke the command prefix with
#       for arguments appended. See '::htmlparse::debugCallback' for a
#       description. In incremental mode however the generated scripts
#       will invoke the command prefix with five arguments
#       appended. The last four of these are the same which were
#       mentioned above. The first however is a placeholder string
#       (\win\) for a clientdata value to be supplied later during the
#       actual execution of the generated scripts. This could be a tk
#       window path, for example. This allows the user of this package
#       to preprocess HTML strings without commiting them to a
#       specific window, object, whatever during parsing. This
#       connection can be made later. This also means that it is
#       possible to cache preprocessed HTML. Of course, nothing
#       prevents the user of the parser to replace the placeholder
#       with an empty string.
#
# Arguments:
#       args    An option/value-list followed by the string to
#               parse. Available options are:
#
#               -cmd    The command prefix to invoke for every tag in
#                       the HTML string. Defaults to
#                       '::htmlparse::debugCallback'.
#
#               -vroot  The virtual root tag to add around the HTML in
#                       normal mode. In incremental mode it is the
#                       first tag in each chunk processed by the
#                       parser, but there will be no closing tags.
#                       Defaults to 'hmstart'.
#
#               -split  The size of the groups produced by an
#                       incremental mode parser. Ignored when in
#                       normal mode. Defaults to 10. Values <= 0 are
#                       not allowed.
#
#               -incvar The name of the variable where to store any
#                       incomplete HTML into. Optional.
#
#               -queue
#                       The handle/name of the queue objecct to store
#                       the generated scripts into. Activates
#                       incremental mode. Normal mode is used if this
#                       option is not present.
#
#               After the option the command explect a single argument
#               containing the HTML string to parse.
#
# Side Effects:
#       In normal mode as of the invoked command. Else none.
#
# Results:
#       None.

# htmlparse::debugCallback --
#
#       The standard callback used by the parser in

#       both normal and incremental mode of the calling parser. In

#       arguments are described below. The optional fifth argument
#       contains the clientdata value given to the callback by a
#       parser in incremental mode. All callbacks have to follow the
#       signature of this command in the last four arguments, and
#       callbacks used in incremental parsing have to follow this
#       signature in the last five arguments.
#
# Arguments:
#       tag                     The name of the tag currently
#                               processed by the parser.
#
#       slash                   Either empty or a slash. Allows us to

# htmlparse::2tree --
#
#       This command is a wrapper around '::htmlparse::parse' which

#       object provides the same interface as the tree object from
#       tcllib -> struct. It doesn't have to come from that module
#       though. The internal callback does some basic checking of HTML
#       validity and tries to recover from the most basic errors.
#
# Arguments:
#       html    The HTML string to parse and convert.
#       tree    The name of the tree to fill.
#
# Side Effects:
#       Creates a tree object (see tcllib -> struct)

                # 2) If no matching opening tag was found assume case
                #    (a) and ignore the tag.
                #
