Class Clean

org.w3c.tidy.Clean

public class Clean extends Object
Clean up misuse of presentation markup. Filters from other formats such as Microsoft Word often make excessive use of presentation markup such as font tags, B, I, and the align attribute. By applying a set of production rules, it is straight forward to transform this to use CSS. Some rules replace some of the children of an element by style properties on the element, e.g.

...

.

...

Such rules are applied to the element's content and then to the element itself until none of the rules more apply. Having applied all the rules to an element, it will have a style attribute with one or more properties. Other rules strip the element they apply to, replacing it by style properties on the contents, e.g.
  • ...

  • .

    ... These rules are applied to an element before processing its content and replace the current element by the first element in the exposed content. After applying both sets of rules, you can replace the style attribute by a class value and style rule in the document head. To support this, an association of styles and class names is built. A naive approach is to rely on string matching to test when two property lists are the same. A better approach would be to first sort the properties before matching.

        public Clean(TagTable tagTable)
        Instantiates a new Clean.
        Parameters:
        tagTable - tag table instance
    • Method Details

      • cleanTree

        public void cleanTree(Lexer lexer, Node doc)
        Clean an html tree.
        Parameters:
        lexer - Lexer
        doc - root node
      • nestedEmphasis

        public void nestedEmphasis(Node node)
        simplifies ... ... etc.
        Parameters:
        node - root Node
      • emFromI

        public void emFromI(Node node)
        Replace i by em and b by strong.
        Parameters:
        node - root Node
      • list2BQ

        public void list2BQ(Node node)
        Some people use dir or ul without an li to indent the content. The pattern to look for is a list with a single implicit li. This is recursively replaced by an implicit blockquote.
        Parameters:
        node - root Node
      • bQ2Div

        public void bQ2Div(Node node)
        Replace implicit blockquote by div with an indent taking care to reduce nested blockquotes to a single div with the indent set to match the nesting depth.
        Parameters:
        node - root Node
      • pruneSection

        public Node pruneSection(Lexer lexer, Node node)
        node is <![if ...]> prune up to <![endif]>.
        Parameters:
        lexer - Lexer
        node - Node
        Returns:
        cleaned up Node
      • dropSections

        public void dropSections(Lexer lexer, Node node)
        Drop if/endif sections inserted by word2000.
        Parameters:
        lexer - Lexer
        node - Node root node
      • purgeWord2000Attributes

        public void purgeWord2000Attributes(Node node)
        Remove word2000 attributes from node.
        Parameters:
        node - node to cleanup
      • stripSpan

        public Node stripSpan(Lexer lexer, Node span)
        Word2000 uses span excessively, so we strip span out.
        Parameters:
        lexer - Lexer
        span - Node span
        Returns:
        cleaned node
      • cleanWord2000

        public void cleanWord2000(Lexer lexer, Node node)
        This is a major clean up to strip out all the extra stuff you get when you save as web page from Word 2000. It doesn't yet know what to do with VML tags, but these will appear as errors unless you declare them as new tags, such as o:p which needs to be declared as inline.
        Parameters:
        lexer - Lexer
        node - node to clean up
      • isWord2000

        public boolean isWord2000(Node root)
        Check if the current document is a converted Word document.
        Parameters:
