Request: setting to switch between XHTML and HTML selfclosing elements #2

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

On line 330 of zen_core.py, self-closing tags are hard-coded to include a space 
and backslash.  
However, this is not appropriate for standard HTML, and some people prefer not 
to use a space 
before their backspace.

I would appreciate it if you added a setting that scripts could adjust.  For 
instance, 
selfclosing_string at the top of zen_core.py.  Then whatever is implementing 
zen could do this if 
they wanted to use standard HTML instead of XHTML:

from zencoding import zen_core

zen_core.selfclosing_string = ''

I've made this change in the attached file, if you would like to integrate it 
as proposed.

I'll think about it. IMO, the most suitable solution to this problem is to add 
'profiles' for xHTML that will describe 
output. For example: tag name case (uppercase/lowercase), attribute name case, 
omit closing tag, etc

I would love to see something a bit more powerful and flexible than the code I 
submitted.  As long as zen-
coding gives the script or app wrapping it a way to specify options like the 
self-closing string on the fly, I'll be 
happy.  :-)

I've added experimental support for custom variables (like 'language') and 
profiles for generating output. You 
can check them out from my private branch:
