Let me say it straight -out:</p> - -<p class="emphasis">This ain't HTML Tidy!</p> - -<p>Rather, Tidy stands for a cool set of Tidy-inspired features in HTML Purifier -that allows users to submit deprecated elements and attributes and get -valid strict markup back. For example:</p> - -<pre><center>Centered</center></pre> - -<p>...becomes:</p> - -<pre><div style="text-align:center;">Centered</div></pre> - -<p>...when this particular fix is run on the HTML. This tutorial will give -you the lowdown of what exactly HTML Purifier will do when Tidy -is on, and how to fine-tune this behavior. Once again, <strong>you do -not need Tidy installed on your PHP to use these features!</strong></p> - -<h2>What does it do?</h2> - -<p>Tidy will do several things to your HTML:</p> - -<ul> - <li>Convert deprecated elements and attributes to standards-compliant - alternatives</li> - <li>Enforce XHTML compatibility guidelines and other best practices</li> - <li>Preserve data that would normally be removed as per W3C</li> -</ul> - -<h2>What are levels?</h2> - -<p>Levels describe how aggressive the Tidy module should be when -cleaning up HTML. There are four levels to pick: none, light, medium -and heavy. Each of these levels has a well-defined set of behavior -associated with it, although it may change depending on your doctype.</p> - -<dl> - <dt>light</dt> - <dd>This is the <strong>lenient</strong> level. If a tag or attribute - is about to be removed because it isn't supported by the - doctype, Tidy will step in and change into an alternative that - is supported.</dd> - <dt>medium</dt> - <dd>This is the <strong>correctional</strong> level. At this level, - all the functions of light are performed, as well as some extra, - non-essential best practices enforcement. Changes made on this - level are very benign and are unlikely to cause problems.</dd> - <dt>heavy</dt> - <dd>This is the <strong>aggressive</strong> level. If a tag or - attribute is deprecated, it will be converted into a non-deprecated - version, no ifs ands or buts.</dd> -</dl> - -<p>By default, Tidy operates on the <strong>medium</strong> level. You can -change the level of cleaning by setting the %HTML.TidyLevel configuration -directive:</p> - -<pre>$config->set('HTML.TidyLevel', 'heavy'); // burn baby burn!</pre> - -<h2>Is the light level really light?</h2> - -<p>It depends on what doctype you're using. If your documents are HTML -4.01 <em>Transitional</em>, HTML Purifier will be lazy -and won't clean up your <code>center</code> -or <code>font</code> tags. But if you're using HTML 4.01 <em>Strict</em>, -HTML Purifier has no choice: it has to convert them, or they will -be nuked out of existence. So while light on Transitional will result -in little to no changes, light on Strict will still result in quite -a lot of fixes.</p> - -<p>This is different behavior from 1.6 or before, where deprecated -tags in transitional documents would -always be cleaned up regardless. This is also better behavior.</p> - -<h2>My pages look different!</h2> - -<p>HTML Purifier is tasked with converting deprecated tags and -attributes to standards-compliant alternatives, which usually -need copious amounts of CSS. It's also not foolproof: sometimes -things do get lost in the translation. This is why when HTML Purifier -can get away with not doing cleaning, it won't; this is why -the default value is <strong>medium</strong> and not heavy.</p> - -<p>Fortunately, only a few attributes have problems with the switch -over. They are described below:</p> - -<table class="table"> - <thead><tr> - <th>Element@Attr</th> - <th>Changes</th> - </tr></thead> - <tbody> - <tr> - <td>caption@align</td> - <td>Firefox supports stuffing the caption on the - left and right side of the table, a feature that - Internet Explorer, understandably, does not have. - When align equals right or left, the text will simply - be aligned on the left or right side.</td> - </tr> - <tr> - <td>img@align</td> - <td>The implementation for align bottom is good, but not - perfect. There are a few pixel differences.</td> - </tr> - <tr> - <td>br@clear</td> - <td>Clear both gets a little wonky in Internet Explorer. Haven't - really been able to figure out why.</td> - </tr> - <tr> - <td>hr@noshade</td> - <td>All browsers implement this slightly differently: we've - chosen to make noshade horizontal rules gray.</td> - </tr> - </tbody> -</table> - -<p>There are a few more minor, although irritating, bugs. -Some older browsers support deprecated attributes, -but not CSS. Transformed elements and attributes will look unstyled -to said browsers. Also, CSS precedence is slightly different for -inline styles versus presentational markup. In increasing precedence:</p> - -<ol> - <li>Presentational attributes</li> - <li>External style sheets</li> - <li>Inline styling</li> -</ol> - -<p>This means that styling that may have been masked by external CSS -declarations will start showing up (a good thing, perhaps). Finally, -if you've turned off the style attribute, almost all of -these transformations will not work. Sorry mates.</p> - -<p>You can review the rendering before and after of these transformations -by consulting the <a -href="http://htmlpurifier.org/live/smoketests/attrTransform.php">attrTransform.php -smoketest</a>.</p> - -<h2>I like the general idea, but the specifics bug me!</h2> - -<p>So you want HTML Purifier to clean up your HTML, but you're not -so happy about the br@clear implementation. That's perfectly fine! -HTML Purifier will make accomodations:</p> - -<pre>$config->set('HTML.Doctype', 'XHTML 1.0 Transitional'); -$config->set('HTML.TidyLevel', 'heavy'); // all changes, minus... -<strong>$config->set('HTML.TidyRemove', 'br@clear');</strong></pre> - -<p>That third line does the magic, removing the br@clear fix -from the module, ensuring that <code><br clear="both" /></code> -will pass through unharmed. The reverse is possible too:</p> - -<pre>$config->set('HTML.Doctype', 'XHTML 1.0 Transitional'); -$config->set('HTML.TidyLevel', 'none'); // no changes, plus... -<strong>$config->set('HTML.TidyAdd', 'p@align');</strong></pre> - -<p>In this case, all transformations are shut off, except for the p@align -one, which you found handy.</p> - -<p>To find out what the names of fixes you want to turn on or off are, -you'll have to consult the source code, specifically the files in -<code>HTMLPurifier/HTMLModule/Tidy/</code>. There is, however, a -general syntax:</p> - -<table class="table"> - <thead> - <tr> - <th>Name</th> - <th>Example</th> - <th>Interpretation</th> - </tr> - </thead> - <tbody> - <tr> - <td>element</td> - <td>font</td> - <td>Tag transform for <em>element</em></td> - </tr> - <tr> - <td>element@attr</td> - <td>br@clear</td> - <td>Attribute transform for <em>attr</em> on <em>element</em></td> - </tr> - <tr> - <td>@attr</td> - <td>@lang</td> - <td>Global attribute transform for <em>attr</em></td> - </tr> - <tr> - <td>e#content_model_type</td> - <td>blockquote#content_model_type</td> - <td>Change of child processing implementation for <em>e</em></td> - </tr> - </tbody> -</table> - -<h2>So... what's the lowdown?</h2> - -<p>The lowdown is, quite frankly, HTML Purifier's default settings are -probably good enough. The next step is to bump the level up to heavy, -and if that still doesn't satisfy your appetite, do some fine-tuning. -Other than that, don't worry about it: this all works silently and -effectively in the background.</p> - -</body></html> - -<!-- vim: et sw=4 sts=4 ---> |
