PROGRAM:

NAME


hxname2id - move some NAME and ID attributes from an A to its parent

SYNOPSIS


hxname2id [ -x ] [ file ]

DESCRIPTION


The hxname2id command reads an HTML file and looks for elements with an A element as first
child, with no intervening text other than whitespace. If that A element has an ID or NAME
attribute, it is moved to the parent element and removed from the A.

Because Netscape 4 doesn't understand ID attributes, it was common practice to write
<H2><A NAME="sect7">...</A></H2> instead of <H2 ID="sect7">. This program can be used to
convert such old HTML files to the new convention.

Other programs in this suite, such as hxmultitoc(1), require IDs on headings instead of A
elements with NAME attributes. So it is useful to run hxname2id prior to running
hxmultitoc and similar program. hxname2id can be used in a pipe.

OPTIONS


The following options are supported:

-x Use XML conventions: empty elements are written with a slash at the end: <IMG />

OPERANDS


The following operand is supported:

file The name of an HTML file. If absent, standard input is read instead.

DIAGNOSTICS


The following exit values are returned:

0 Successful completion.

> 0 An error occurred in the parsing of the HTML file. hxname2id will try to
correct the error and produce output anyway.
