<p>
|
|
<var>THTML2TextRenderer</var> is an HTML-to-Text renderer. It converts HTML into plain text by stripping tags and their attributes. Converted text includes configurable indentation for HTML tags that affect the indentation level. The following HTML tags include special processing in the renderer:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>HTML</li>
|
|
<li>BODY</li>
|
|
<li>P</li>

<li>BR</li>
|

<li>HR</li>

<li>OL</li>

<li>UL</li>

|
<li>LI</li>
|
|
<li>DIV CLASS="TITLE" (forces title mark output)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The following Named character entities are converted to their plain text equivalent:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt>&nbsp;</dt>
|
|
<dd>' '</dd>

<dt>&amp;</dt>

</dl>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Other named character entities or numeric character entities are included verbatim in the plain text output.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A UTF-8 Byte Order Mark in the HTML is ignored.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Set property values in the class instance to customize the content and formatting produced in the output. Use the Render method to parse and process the HTML content passed to the constructor, and generate the output for the class instance.

<var>AddOutput</var> is a <var>Boolean</var> function used to append the value specified in <var>aText</var> to the output for the renderer.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
AddOutput ensures that a space character is included for wrapped lines in the HTML when there are no pending new lines . Otherwise, the required number of line ending sequences are appended to the output for the render and the line count is increased accordingly. If the line count exceeds the maximum number allowed in <var>Render</var>, the value in <var>MoreMark</var> is appended to the output.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Pending new line(s) also cause indentation spaces to be appended to the output.
|

</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The value in aText is appended to the output for the renderer prior to exiting from the method.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|

AddOutput is used in the implementation of the <var>Render</var>, <var>HtmlTag</var>, and <var>HtmlEntity</var> methods.

<var>Render</var> is a <var>String</var> function used to parse the HTML passed as an argument to the constructor, and to render the plain text output in the return value.

Renders calls the <var>Reset</var> method to set the initial values for members and flags used in the class instance. The parsing mechanism looks for HTML tags and character entities/references, processes their content, and calls the <var>AddOutput</var> method. Whitespace (characters #32, #9, #10, and #13) between tags and entities is always normalized into a single space character.

Render calls the HtmlTag, HtmlEntity, and AddOutput methods to process the HTML content passed to the method.
