Hello, According to this page: http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/HaXml/HaXml/Text-XML-HaXml-Wrappers.html processXmlWith is used to apply a filter to an existing XML document. By default, it will try to read the input document from stdin. So, I am imagine that is what it is doing -- sitting their waiting for you to input the document on stdin. It sounds like what you want to do is create a new html document from scratch -- not filter an existing document. I have never been very clear on how you are supposed to do this with HaXml... Also, creating html or xhtml documents with HaXml may be a bit tricky, because HaXml will try to use short tags whenever there is no content in the body. But, html does not always allow this. For example, an empty textarea in html must have distinct open and close tags: <textarea></textarea> But HaXml will try to use the short tag: <textarea/> However, it looks like there is now a function, htmlprint :: [Content] -> Doc http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/HaXml/HaXml/Text-XML-HaXml-Html-Generate.html So may something like this would work:
main = print $ htmlprint $ go (CString False "")
go :: CFilter go = html []
I don't have HaXml install at the moment, so that may not type-check... j. At Sat, 30 Dec 2006 21:38:50 +0000 (UTC), Terrence Brannon wrote:
Hello, I don't know why my simple example will not render a simple HTML document.
For the moment, I simply want to render this: <html> </html>
or whatever, the simplest document is.
When I run my source code, it simply hangs (as the transcript below shows)
