The Validator.nu HTML Parser is an implementation of the HTML5 parsing algorithm in Java for applications. The parser is designed to work as a drop-in replacement for the XML parser in applications that already support XHTML 1.x content with an XML parser and use SAX, DOM or XOM to interface with the parser.

Package Overview



This package provides SAX Tree: a tree model optimized for creation from SAX 
events and replay as SAX events.
Design Principles

Preserve information exposed through ContentHandler, 
LexicalHandler and Locator.
Creation from SAX events or as part of the parse of a conforming 
HTML5 document should be fast.
Emitting SAX events based on the tree should be fast.
Mutations should be possible but should not make the above 
"fast" cases slower.
Concurrent reads should work without locking when there are no 
concurrent mutations.
The user of the API has the responsibility of using the API properly: 
for the sake of performance, the model does not check if it is being 
used properly. Improper use may, therefore, put the model in and 
inconsistent state.
