2: .SH NAME
3: libxml \- library used to parse XML files
4: .SH DESCRIPTION
5: The
6: .I libxml
7: library is used to parse XML files.
8: Its internal document repesentation is as close as possible to the
9: .I DOM
10: (Document Object Model) interface,
11: an API for accessing XML or HTML structured documents.
12: .LP
13: The
14: .I libxml
15: library also has a
16: .IR SAX -like
17: interface,
18: which is designed to be compatible with
19: .IR expat (1).
20: NOTE:
21: .IR SAX ,
22: the Simple API for XML,
23: is a standard interface for event-based XML parsing,
24: developed collaboratively by the members of the XML-DEV mailing list,
25: currently hosted by OASIS.
26: The
27: .I expat
28: library is a XML 1.0 parser written in C,
29: which aims to be fully conforming.
30: It is currently not a validating XML processor.
31: .LP
32: The
33: .I libxml
34: library now includes a nearly complete
35: .I XPath
36: implementation.
37: The
38: .I XPath
39: (XML Path Language) is a language for addressing parts of an
40: XML document,
41: designed to be used by both
42: .I XSLT
43: and
44: .IR XPointer .
45: .LP
46: The
47: .I libxml
48: library exports Push and Pull type parser interfaces for both XML and
49: .IR html .
