FourThought LLC (http://FourThought.com) announces the release of
4DOM 0.8.2
-----------------------
An XML/HTML Python library using the
Document Object Model interface
4DOM is a Python library for XML and HTML processing and manipulation
using the W3C's Document Object Model for interface. 4DOM supports
DOM all of Level 1 (core and HTML), as well as Document Traversal from
Level 2. 4DOM also adds some helper components for DOM Tree creation
and printing, python integration, white-space manipulation, etc.
4DOM can work in a CORBA* enviroment, or in a purely local set-up.
4DOM is designed to allow developers rapidly design applications
that read, write or manipulate HTML and XML.
News
----
Changes:
- Create a Reader module under Ext for importing strings into 4DOM.
Builder is now deprecated and will disappear before version 1.0
o Reader has three drivers currently: Sax and HtmlLib are
just modularized versions of the functionality that was
formerly in Builder, and Sax2 is a driver for the
as-yet experimental SAX 2 specification.
- Fixed a Builder/Reader bug for HTML input and empty, unclosed tags
such as <br>
- Fixed a bug in text normalization
- Miscellaneous bug-fixes
