in thread Thanks to Ikegami, Chromatic & Corion
The only analogy I can think of right now is if I handed you a Lego Technic kit that you can build a transformer out of, composed of lots of lovely little pieces designed to fit together and to transform smoothly from their initial state to their final state
The problem is that the little pieces don't fit together in what you handed me. There are some connectors missing. I'm slowly getting you to realise these connectors are missing.
would not render certain documents correctly.
Only if you misapply it.
Your current flow is:
plugin produces aXML code, parser takes that aXML code and produces HTML code, browser takes that HTML code and produces text.
Except your plugins don't always produce aXML code. For example, look at d. IIRC, you said it currently produces HTML. escape addresses that bug. It will convert the HTML into aXML.
text_to_aXML: The "escape" function I posted, renamed for clarity. text_to_html: Converts & to &, < to <, etc. # Current sub d { my $text = ...; return text_to_html($text); } # Should be sub d { my $text = ...; return text_to_aXML(text_to_html($text)); }
You seem to be considering what would happen if every plugin used it, and indeed that would make no sense.
