Subject: add example of how to create a simple HTML page
Date: Sat, 17 Sep 2016 21:10:09 +0800
To: bug-XML-LibXML [...] rt.cpan.org
From: 積丹尼 Dan Jacobson <jidanni [...] jidanni.org>
In /usr/share/doc/libxml-parser-perl/examples there are a lot of examples, all except one for how to create a simple Hello_World.html page from scratch. One with oh, a link, a img tag, a paragraph, a list.

This sounds like a commendable goal which I'd like to work on. That put aside: 1. The contents of the /usr/share/doc/** are specific to the Linux distribution's downstream and not directly under our control. Please make sure the problem exists in the CPAN tarballs on https://metacpan.org/ as well before reporting it. 2. libxml-parser-perl belongs to https://metacpan.org/release/XML-Parser - not to XML-LibXML. With which CPAN distro do you have an issue? Regards, -- Shlomi Fish

All I know is here on Debian I do $ man XML::LibXML and on that man page there are tons of sub man pages mentioned, all of which surely contain all the info on how to make a humble HTML page from scratch, however one must be smart to connect all the info together and figure it out as there are no complete examples.

Sigh. You'd better know what you are asking about and where to look for examples for XML::LibXML (and make sure it's not Debian-specific). Anyway, I'll try to get to working on the "creating-an-HTML-page from scratch" example, time and interest permitting.

Hi Dan! Please let me know if you like the example I added here - https://github.com/shlomif/perl-XML-LibXML/blob/add-create-HTML-document-example--rt-117923/example/create-sample-html-document.pl . If so, I can merge it into the master branch and mint a new release.

Thank you. Also show how to add a doctype, e.g. 4.01 strict... and: please make a additional second version, *no subroutines allowed*.

Also show how to turn on indenting/pretty printing. Thanks.

Sorry, but I'm not going to do it out of my own volition free-of-charge. You have three options the way I see it: 1. Pay me 1,000 U.S. dollars for my trouble using PayPal in advance - see http://www.shlomifish.org/meta/donate/ . 2. Do the work yourself and send me a pull-request for a new file. 3. Learn to live with abstractions and accept the status quo. Hopefully one of them will be acceptable to you.

I'll try to see what I can do.

OK but please do add a note that for even creating such a small HTML file like this, it would be much more complicated to do without the subroutines. (My guess.)

Also add a validation step, if possible. Thanks.

(I thought not using subroutines would be as easy as in XML::TreePP.)

Hi! Sorry for the late response but it appears that you are far too demanding (like a friend I talked with told me - it seems you are trying to get us to write your schoolwork for you). So I'm going to close this bug and merge the branch I created, and if you want, you can send me pull requests with additional features in the example (it can be part of https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com/ too). Sorry! Regards, -- Shlomi
