.SH NAME

libxml \- library used to parse XML files

.SH DESCRIPTION

The

.I libxml

library is used to parse XML files.

Its internal document representation is as close as possible to the

.I DOM

(Document Object Model) interface,

an API for accessing XML or HTML structured documents.

.LP

The

.I libxml

library also has a

.IR SAX -like

interface,

which is designed to be compatible with

.IR expat (1).

NOTE:

.IR SAX ,

the Simple API for XML,

is a standard interface for event-based XML parsing,

developed collaboratively by the members of the XML-DEV mailing list,

currently hosted by OASIS.

The

.I expat

library is a XML 1.0 parser written in C,

which aims to be fully conforming.

It is currently not a validating XML processor.

.LP

The

.I libxml

library now includes a nearly complete

.I XPath

implementation.

The

.I XPath

(XML Path Language) is a language for addressing parts of an

XML document,

designed to be used by both

.I XSLT

and

.IR XPointer .

.LP

The

.I libxml

library exports Push and Pull type parser interfaces for both XML and

.IR html .
