Interface MarkupModel

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    AbstractMarkupModel, DefaultMarkupModel, Html5MarkupModel, XMLMarkupModel

    public interface MarkupModel
    Used by a the DOM to determine how to produce markup. Delegates details about converted entities and some formatting details. This exists to handle the differences between traditional HTML output (which is SGML based, meaning there can be elements that are valid without a close tag) and "modern" XML, such as XHTML. Generally speaking, for XHTML it is vital that a !DOCTYPE be included in the rendered response, or the browser will be unable to display the result properly.
