The latest version of HTML::Stream (1.32) has been uploaded to the CPAN in the
authors/Eryq directory.  Major news: "html2perlstream" utility now included,
which parses HTML files and generates HTML::Stream code from them.  See below.

NAME

   HTML::Stream - HTML output stream class, and some markup utilities

DESCRIPTION

   The HTML::Stream Perl5 module provides you with an object-oriented
   (and subclassable) way of outputting HTML.  Basically, you open up
   an "HTML stream" on an existing filehandle, and then do all of your
   output to the HTML stream.  You can intermix HTML-stream-output and
   ordinary-print-output, if you like.

   Here's small sample of the different ways you can use this module:

       use HTML::Stream qw(:funcs);
       $HTML = new HTML::Stream \*STDOUT;

       # The vanilla interface...
       $HTML->tag('A', HREF=>"$href");
       $HTML->tag('IMG', SRC=>"logo.gif", ALT=>"LOGO");
       $HTML->text($caption);
       $HTML->tag('_A');

       # The chocolate interface (with whipped cream)...
       $HTML -> A(HREF=>"$href")
             -> IMG(SRC=>"logo.gif", ALT=>"LOGO")
             -> t($caption)
             -> _A;

       # The strawberry interface...
       output $HTML [A, HREF=>"$href"],
                    [IMG, SRC=>"logo.gif", ALT=>"LOGO"],
                    $caption,
                    [_A];

   Please see the HTML::Stream module for full details.

KIT CONTAINS

   HTML::Stream
       The Perl module itself.

   html2perlstream     (in the ./bin directory)
       New! A Perl program for generating HTML::Stream code from HTML.
       You give the HTML you want to generate, and it spits out a .pl
       file.

REQUIREMENTS AND INSTALLATION

   HTML::Stream
       None for basic functionality, although you will need HTML::Entities
       if you want to do some of the fancier Latin-1 escaping/unescaping.

   html2perlstream
       You'll need to have HTML::Parser (and anything it depends on, probably
       HTML::Entities) installed.

 * POSSIBLY-OLD COPIES OF HTML::Entities AND HTML::Parser HAVE BEEN PLACED
   IN THE ./etc DIRECTORY FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE.  However, they will *not*
   be installed during this toolkit's installation process, and I STRONGLY
   urge you to get fresh, up-to-date copies from the CPAN
   (http://www.perl.com/perl).


WHERE TO GET IT

   Any CPAN site, in directory authors/Eryq.
   Go to http://www.perl.com/perl for details.
