Class TagInfo


  • public class TagInfo
    extends java.lang.Object

    Class contains information about single HTML tag.
    It also contains rules for tag balancing. For each tag, list of dependent tags may be defined. There are several kinds of dependencies used to reorder tags:

    • fatal tags - required outer tag - the tag will be ignored during parsing (will be skipped) if this fatal tag is missing. For example, most web browsers ignore elements TD, TR, TBODY if they are not in the context of TABLE tag.
    • required enclosing tags - if there is no such, it is implicitly created. For example if TD is out of TR - open TR is created before.
    • forbidden tags - it is not allowed to occur inside - for example FORM cannot be inside other FORM and it will be ignored during cleanup.
    • allowed children tags - for example TR allows TD and TH. If there are some dependent allowed tags defined then cleaner ignores other tags, treating them as not allowed, unless they are in some other relationship with this tag.
    • preferred child tag - where a child tag doesn't match, but we want to by default insert an intervening tag rather than just move it outside. For example, LI in UL, TD in TR.
    • higher level tags - for example for TR higher tags are THEAD, TBODY, TFOOT.
    • tags that must be closed and copied - for example, in <a href="#"><div>.... tag A must be closed before DIV but copied again inside DIV.
    • tags that must be closed before closing this tag and copied again after - for example, in <i><b>at</i> first</b> text tag B must be closed before closing I, but it must be copied again after resulting finally in sequence: <i><b>at</b></i><b> first</b> text .

    Tag TR for instance (table row) may define the following dependencies:

    • fatal tag is table
    • required enclosing tag is tbody
    • allowed children tags are td,th
    • higher level tags are thead,tfoot
    • tags that muste be closed before are tr,td,th,caption,colgroup
    meaning the following:
    • tr must be in context of table, otherwise it will be ignored,
    • tr may can be directly inside tbody, tfoot and thead, otherwise tbody will be implicitly created in front of it.
    • tr can contain td and th, all other tags and content will be pushed out of current limiting context, in the case of html tables, in front of enclosing table tag.
    • if previous open tag is one of tr, caption or colgroup, it will be implicitly closed.
