1LibXML binding for libdom
2=========================
3
4 This is a wrapper around libxml's push parser API, to facilitate
5 construction of a libdom DOM tree. The basic premise is that the wrapper
6 intercepts the SAX events emitted by libxml's tokeniser then invokes
7 libxml's own SAX handlers, wrapping the results up in libdom-specific
8 data structures.

10 The tree created is thus a tree of libdom nodes, each of which is linked
11 to the libxml node that backs it. This allows the binding to process the
12 DOM tree using libxml api, should it need to (e.g. for normalization
13 purposes).
