what is it ---------- A Python package to parse and build CSS Cascading Style Sheets. Partly implements the DOM Level 2 Stylesheets and DOM Level 2 CSS interfaces.
The implementation uses some Python standard features like standard lists for classes like css.CSSRuleList and is hopefully a bit easier to use. changes since the last full release ----------------------------------- **MAJOR API CHANGE** reflecting DOM Level 2 Stylesheets and DOM Level 2 CSS see http://cthedot.de/cssutils/ for a complete list of changes, examples etc changes in 0.8a3 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * custom log for CSSparser should work again * calling script cssparser has 2 new options (not using optparse yet...) cssparser.py filename.css [encoding[, "debug"]] 1. encoding of the filename.css to parse 2. if called with "debug" debugging mode is enabled and default log prints all messages * cssutils.css.CSSUnknownRule reintegrated and Tests added * cssutils.Comment reintegrated implements css.CSSRule, there a new typevalue COMMENT (=-1) is added * lexer does handle strings *almost* right now... * bugfixes * simplified lexer, still lots of simplification todo known issues ------------ * @media and @page rules are disabled (Unknown Rule will be used currently) * string with enclosed quotes probably do cause errors e.g. content: "some \"text"; will likely break the parser * probably all escaped characters (\x) will break the parser * nested blocks like in @media or custom at-rules will probably not work license ------- cssutils is published under the LGPL. download -------- download cssutils 0.8a3 alpha - 050813 from http://cthedot.de/cssutils/ This is an alpha release so use at your own risk! Some parts will not work as expected... Any bug report is welcome. cssutils needs * Python 2.3 (tested with Python 2.4.1 on Windows XP only) * maybe PyXML (tested with PyXML 0.8.4 installed) any comment will be appreciated, thanks christof hoeke <P><A HREF="http://cthedot.de/cssutils/";>cssutils 0.8a3</A> - cssutils - CSS Cascading Style Sheets library for Python (13-Aug-05) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations.html
