[Fwd: Xmlc: [Ann] Jivan 1.0 RC 1]

This looks pretty interesting, so I thought I would forward it over from 
the XMLC list.

Hi,

I have been working on the Jivan Project (www.jivan.org) for a while, It is an open 
source project. Similar to XMLC it can parse HTML, lets you manipulate the HTML DOM and 
can seialize the result. It is optimized for use in web applications.

There were 3 reasons to write Jivan and not use xmlc for HTML pages:
 - performance: Jivan is more than 3 times faster in table replication (see 
www.jivan.org   for performance result)
 - ease of use: Jivan doesn't compile anything and does not need to be included in the 
build process (hence no ant taskdef neccessary)
 - dealing with invalid HTML: Jivan leaves the HTML page as it is, except those places 
you dynamically change. Jivan parses almost any HTML without fixing (unlike xmlc). While 
serialisation, for all nodes (and subtrees) which are not touched by the programmer, 
Jivan will copy the coresponding HTML string from the supplied template directly to the 
output.


Jivan uses the latest form Apache.org: Xerces-2 and nekoHTML.

Similar to xmlc, you manipulate the web-page through the standard interfaces from W3C DOM 
for HTML.

check it out at www.jivan.org and give me some feedback,
    Arno
