Objects? Procedural? Pick your Pleasure!
The tidy PHP extension in PHP 5 has a incredibly flexible API which
allows you to use procedural or object oriented syntax. In fact, you
can even use both at the same time!
Procedural API
<?php
/* Parse a file */
$tidy1 = tidy_parse_file("myfile.html");
/* Parse a string */
$tidy2 = tidy_parse_string("<HTML><B>Hello!</B>");
/* Clean up the markup */
tidy_clean_repair($tidy1);
tidy_clean_repair($tidy2);
/* Get the error buffer */
$errors = tidy_get_error_buffer($tidy1);
/* Get the output */
$output = tidy_get_output($tidy2);
?>
Object Oriented API
<?php
/* Create a new document instance */
$tidy = new tidy_doc();
/* Parse a remote URL via Streams */
$tidy->parseFile("http://www.coggeshall.org/");
/* Clean and repair the HTML document */
$tidy->cleanRepair();
/* Access the error buffer */
$error_buf = $tidy->error_buf;
/* Access the output by object overloading */
echo $tidy;
?>
Mix and Match
<?php
/* Parse a new document */
$tidy = tidy_parse_file("http://www.coggeshall.org/");
/* Clean and repair the document */
$tidy->clean_repair();
/* Output the results; */
echo $tidy;
?>
