Version 2.0, January 18, 2002.

EWS::htmlout is an object-oriented class which provides access to a collection of HTML 4.01 related methods designed to make the creation of cgi scripts easier. EWS::htmlout extends the base-class EWS::baseIO to provide object-oriented HTML 4.01 input/output functionality.

The methods provided with the EWS::htmlout class adhere to the HTML 4.01 Specification, W3C Recommendation 24 December 1999. All attributes indicated by the specification for an html entity are supported by the associated method.

NOTE: EWS::htmlout does not support DEPRECATED html entities. EWS::htmldep provides backward compatability to access DEPRECATED entities. EWS::htmldep uses EWS::htmlout as a base class.

Each EWS::htmlout method accepts parameters for the related HTML function as a hash containing name/value pairs for each HTML parameter.

EWS::htmlout can be extended by (i.e. - serve as a base-class for) modules wishing to expand upon the provided vocabulary.

The following HTML 4.01 entities are supported:

Global structure tokens Language Information and Text Direction Text - Paragraphs, Lines and Phrases Lists Tables Links Objects and Images Style Sheets Alignment, Font Styles and Horizontal Rules Frames Forms Scripts

Refer to the HTML 4.01 Specification, W3C Recommendation 24 December 1999 at W3C for specific details about the function of theses entities. Refer to the EWS::htmlout POD for information about the entity methods.
