libxml2 is a software library for parsing XML documents. It is also the basis for the libxslt library which processes XSLT-1.0 stylesheets.

Description [edit]

Written in the C programming language, libxml2 provides bindings to C++, Ch ,[1] XSH, C#, Python, Kylix/Delphi and other Pascals, Ruby, and PHP5. It can be accessed from Perl using the XML::LibXML Perl module. It was originally developed for the GNOME project, but can be used outside it. The libXML code is highly portable, since it depends on standard ANSI C libraries only, and it is released under the MIT license. This library was written by Daniel Veillard and enjoys active feedback from its users.

It includes the command-line utility xmllint.

It also includes an HTML parser.[2]
