Class HTMLPageParser

java.lang.Object
com.opensymphony.module.sitemesh.parser.HTMLPageParser
All Implemented Interfaces:
PageParser
Direct Known Subclasses:
DivExtractingPageParser
public class HTMLPageParser extends Object implements PageParser

Builds an HTMLPage object from an HTML document. This behaves similarly to the FastPageParser, however it's a complete rewrite that is simpler to add custom features to such as extraction and transformation of elements.

To customize the rules used, this class can be extended and have the userDefinedRules() methods overridden.
