Whatpm (beta)

Introduction

Whatpm is a work-in-progress set of Perl modules for Web hypertext application technologies.

It currently contains six Perl modules:

Whatpm::ContentChecker

A DOM5 HTML (in-memory representation of a document) conformance checker.

Whatpm::ContentType

An implementation of HTML5 Content Type sniffing algorithm.

Whatpm::HTML

An implementation of HTML5 parsing algorithm and innerHTML serialization.

Whatpm::HTMLTable

An implementation of the HTML5 table algorithm.

Whatpm::IMTChecker

An Internet Media Type (aka MIME type) specification conformance checker.

Whatpm::URIChecker

An IRI reference conformance checker.

Note that all of these modules are work in progress and have a number of unresolved problems.

Demo

• HTML5 parser and checker demo
• HTML5 table structure visualization demo

Distribution

The development version of Whatpm may be found in the CVS repository.

TO DO

• Bug fix (Test results: Whatpm::ContentType, HTML tokenization, HTML tree construction, Whatpm::ContentChecker).
• Charset detection.
• Validation for meta.
• Validation for media queries, IRIs (against URI schemes), language tags, and so on.
• Documentations are missing for some features.
• Whatpm is a code name in fact. Please let me know if you have a better name.
• In addition, each module has its own TO DO items. (Search for ## TODO and ## ISSUE in each module.)
