.TH libxml 3 "12 April 2000".SH NAMElibxml \- library used to parse XML files.SH DESCRIPTIONThe.I  libxmllibrary 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..LPThe.I libxmllibrary also has a .IR SAX -likeinterface, 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 expatlibrary is a XML 1.0 parser written in C,which aims to be fully conforming. It is currently not a validating XML processor..LPThe.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 ..LPThe.I libxml library exports Push and Pull type parser interfaces for both XML and .IR html . .SH FILES.TP 2.2i.B /depot/lib/libxml_2.0.0/libxml.astatic library.TP.B /depot/lib/libxml_2.0.0/libxml.soshared library.TP.B /depot/package/libxml_2.0.0/bin/xmllintbinary application for parsing XML files.SH AUTHORSDaniel Veillard (daniel@veillard.com).Red Hat Inc.Manual page by Ziying Sherwin (sherwin@nlm.nih.gov),Lister Hill National Center for Biomedical Communications,U.S. National Library of Medicine..SH SEE ALSO.IR xmllint (1),.IR libxslt (3),.IR libexslt (3),.IR xsltproc (1).\" end of manual page
