Hi,

apologies upfront. As time presses I decided to post questions immediately as soon as I run into dead-ends.

I just don't want to give the impression that I'm not willing to do my homework.

I'm trying to find documentation on Xhtml, the site on hackage refers to http://www.cse.ogi.edu/~andy/html/intro.htm for an introduction to the library, the link is dead.

I managed to locate Andy Gill's current homepage (http://www.cse.ogi.edu/~andy/html/intro.htm) but there is no mention of his html combinatory library.

sry, I meant this site here: http://www.ittc.ku.edu/~andygill/index.php

...

Does anyone else know where an introduction to this library can be retrieved from?

Günther

Hi, By Xhtml, do you mean the xhtml package on hackage [1] ? Maybe to get you started: $ ghci Prelude> :m + Text.XHtml.Strict Prelude Text.XHtml.Strict> putStrLn . prettyHtmlFragment $ p (primHtml "hello") ! [theclass "foo"] <p class="foo"> hello </p> The idea is to create values of type Html, e.g. primHtml, combine them to make bigger document, e.g. with p or (+++), possibly with some attributes, e.g. with (!), then eventually render the final Html value, e.g. with prettyHtmlFragment. Try it in ghci! HTH, cheers Thu [1] http://hackage.haskell.org/package/xhtml
