# Below is stub documentation for your module. You'd better edit it!

=head1 NAME

HTML::Element::Library - HTML::Element convenience functions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use HTML::Element::Library;
  use HTML::TreeBuilder;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This method provides API calls for common actions on trees when using 
L<HTML::Tree>.

=head1 METHODS

The test suite contains examples of each of these methods in a
file C<t/$method.t>  

=head2 Positional Querying Methods

=head3 $elem->siblings

Return a list of all nodes under the same parent.

=head3 $elem->sibdex

Return the index of C<$elem> into the array of siblings of which it is 
a part. L<HTML::ElementSuper> calls this method C<addr> but I don't think
that is a descriptive name. And such naming is deceptively close to the
C<address> function of C<HTML::Element>. HOWEVER, in the interest of 
backwards compatibility, both methods are available.

=head3 $elem->addr

Same as sibdex

=head3 $elem->position()

Returns the coordinates of this element in the tree it inhabits.
This is accomplished by succesively calling addr() on ancestor
elements until either a) an element that does not support these
methods is found, or b) there are no more parents.  The resulting
list is the n-dimensional coordinates of the element in the tree.

=head2 Element Decoration Methods

=head3 HTML::Element::Library::super_literal($text)

In L<HTML::Element>, Sean Burke discusses super-literals. They are
text which does not get escaped. Great for includng Javascript in
HTML. Also great for including foreign language into a document.

So, you basically toss C<super_literal> your text and back comes
your text wrapped in a C<~literal> element.

One of these days, I'll around to writing a nice C<EXPORT> section.

=head2 Tree Rewriting Methods

=head3 Simplifying calls to HTML::FillInForm

Since HTML::FillInForm gets and returns strings, using HTML::Element instances 
becomes tedious:

   1. Seamstress has an HTML tree that it wants the form filled in on
   2. Seamstress converts this tree to a string
   3. FillInForm parses the string into an HTML tree and then fills in the form
   4. FillInForm converts the HTML tree to a string
   5. Seamstress re-parses the HTML for additional processing 

I've filed a bug about this:
L<https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=44105>

This function, fillinform, 
allows you to pass a tree to fillinform (along with your data structure) and
get back a tree:

   my $new_tree = $html_tree->fillinform($data_structure);
  

=head3 Mapping a hashref to HTML elements

It is very common to get a hashref of data from some external source - flat file, database, XML, etc.
Therefore, it is important to have a convenient way of mapping this data to HTML.

As it turns out, there are 3 ways to do this in HTML::Element::Library. 
The most strict and structured way to do this is with 
C<content_handler>. Two other methods, C<hashmap> and C<datamap> require less manual mapping and may prove
even more easy to use in certain cases.

As is usual with Perl, a practical example is always best. So let's take some sample HTML:

  <h1>user data</h1>
  <span id="name">?</span> 
  <span id="email">?</span> 
  <span id="gender">?</span> 

Now, let's say our data structure is this:

  $ref = { email => 'jim@beam.com', gender => 'lots' } ;

And let's start with the most strict way to get what you want:

 $tree->content_handler(email => $ref->{email} , gender => $ref->{gender}) ;


In this case, you manually state the mapping between id tags and hashref keys and
then C<content_handler> retrieves the hashref data and pops it in the specified place.

Now let's look at the two (actually 2 and a half) other hash-mapping methods. 

 $tree->hashmap(id => $ref);

Now, what this function does is super-destructive. It finds every element in the tree
with an attribute named id (since 'id' is a parameter, it could find every element with
some other attribute also) and replaces the content of  those elements with the hashref 
value.

So, in the case above, the 

   <span id="name">?</span> 

would come out as

  <span id="name"></span> 

(it would be blank) - because there is nothing in the hash with that value, so it substituted

  $ref->{name} 

which was blank and emptied the contents.

Now, let's assume we want to protect name from being auto-assigned. Here is what you do:

 $tree->hashmap(id => $ref, ['name']);

That last array ref is an exclusion list. 

But wouldnt it be nice if you could do a hashmap, but only assigned things which are defined
in the hashref? C<< defmap() >> to the rescue:

 $tree->defmap(id => $ref);

does just that, so 

   <span id="name">?</span> 

would be left alone.


=head4 $elem->hashmap($attr_name, \%hashref, \@excluded, $debug)

This method is designed to take a hashref and populate a series of elements. For example:


  <table>
    <tr sclass="tr" class="alt" align="left" valign="top">
      <td smap="people_id">1</td>
      <td smap="phone">(877) 255-3239</td>
      <td smap="password">*********</td>
    </tr>
  </table>

In the table above, there are several attributes named C<< smap >>. If we have a hashref whose keys are the same:

  my %data = (people_id => 888, phone => '444-4444', password => 'dont-you-dare-render');

Then a single API call allows us to populate the HTML while excluding those ones we dont:

  $tree->hashmap(smap => \%data, ['password']);


Note: the other way to prevent rendering some of the hash mapping is to not give that element the attr
you plan to use for hash mapping.

Also note: the function C<< hashmap >> has a simple easy-to-type API. Interally, it calls C<< hash_map >>
(which has a more verbose keyword calling API). Thus, the above call to C<hashmap()> results in this call:

  $tree->hash_map(hash => \%data, to_attr => 'sid', excluding => ['password']);

=head4 $elem->defmap($attr_name, \%hashref, $debug)

C<defmap> was described above.


=head4 $elem->content_handler(%hashref)

C<content_handler> is described below.


=head3 $elem->replace_content(@new_elem)

Replaces all of C<$elem>'s content with C<@new_elem>. 

=head3 $elem->wrap_content($wrapper_element)

Wraps the existing content in the provided element. If the provided element
happens to be a non-element, a push_content is performed instead.

=head3 $elem->set_child_content(@look_down, $content)

  This method looks down $tree using the criteria specified in @look_down using the the HTML::Element look_down() method.

After finding the node, it detaches the node's content and pushes $content as the node's content.

=head3 $tree->content_handler(%id_content)

This is a convenience method. Because the look_down criteria will often simply be:

   id => 'fixme'

to find things like:

   <a id=fixme href=http://www.somesite.org>replace_content</a>

You can call this method to shorten your typing a bit. You can simply type

   $elem->content_handler( fixme => 'new text' )

Instead of typing:

  $elem->set_child_content(sid => 'fixme', 'new text') 

ALSO NOTE: you can pass a hash whose keys are C<id>s and whose values are the content you want there and it will perform the replacement on each hash member:

  my %id_content = (name => "Terrence Brannon",      
                    email => 'tbrannon@in.com',
                    balance => 666,                         
                    content => $main_content);             

  $tree->content_handler(%id_content);  

=head3 $tree->highlander($subtree_span_id, $conditionals, @conditionals_args)

This allows for "if-then-else" style processing. Highlander was a movie in
which only one would survive. Well, in terms of a tree when looking at a 
structure that you want to process in C<if-then-else> style, only one child
will survive. For example, given this HTML template:

 <span klass="highlander" id="age_dialog"> 
    <span id="under10"> 
       Hello, does your mother know you're  
       using her AOL account? 
    </span> 
    <span id="under18"> 
       Sorry, you're not old enough to enter  
       (and too dumb to lie about your age) 
    </span> 
    <span id="welcome"> 
       Welcome 
    </span> 
 </span> 
 
We only want one child of the C<span> tag with id C<age_dialog> to remain
based on the age of the person visiting the page.

So, let's setup a call that will prune the subtree as a function of age:

 sub process_page {
  my $age = shift;
  my $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder->new_from_file('t/html/highlander.html');

  $tree->highlander
    (age_dialog =>
     [
      under10 => sub { $_[0] < 10} , 
      under18 => sub { $_[0] < 18} ,
      welcome => sub { 1 }
     ],
     $age
    );

And there we have it. If the age is less than 10, then the node with 
id C<under10> remains. For age less than 18, the node with id C<under18> 
remains.
Otherwise our "else" condition fires and the child with id C<welcome> remains.

=head3 $tree->passover(@id_of_element)

In some cases, you know exactly which element(s) should survive. In this case,
you can simply call C<passover> to remove it's (their) siblings. For the HTML
above, you could delete C<under10> and C<welcome> by simply calling:

  $tree->passover('under18');

Because passover takes an array, you can specify several children to preserve.

=head3 $tree->highlander2($tree, $conditionals, @conditionals_args)

Right around the same time that C<table2()> came into being, Seamstress
began to tackle tougher and tougher processing problems. It became clear that 
a more powerful highlander was needed... one that not only snipped the tree
of the nodes that should not survive, but one that allows for 
post-processing of the survivor node. And one that was more flexible with 
how to find the nodes to snip.

Thus (drum roll) C<highlander2()>.

So let's look at our HTML which requires post-selection processing:

 <span klass="highlander" id="age_dialog">
    <span id="under10">
       Hello, little <span id=age>AGE</span>-year old,
    does your mother know you're using her AOL account?
    </span>
    <span id="under18">
       Sorry, you're only <span id=age>AGE</span>
       (and too dumb to lie about your age)
    </span>
    <span id="welcome">
       Welcome, isn't it good to be <span id=age>AGE</span> years old?
    </span>
</span>

In this case, a branch survives, but it has dummy data in it. We must take 
the surviving segment of HTML and rewrite the age C<span> with the age. 
Here is how we use C<highlander2()> to do so:

 sub replace_age { 
  my $branch = shift;
  my $age = shift;
  $branch->look_down(id => 'age')->replace_content($age);
 }

 my $if_then = $tree->look_down(id => 'age_dialog');

  $if_then->highlander2(
    cond => [
      under10 => [
	sub { $_[0] < 10} , 
	\&replace_age
       ],
      under18 => [
	sub { $_[0] < 18} ,
	\&replace_age
       ],
      welcome => [
	sub { 1 },
	\&replace_age
       ]
     ],
    cond_arg => [ $age ]
		       );

We pass it the tree (C<$if_then>), an arrayref of conditions
(C<cond>) and an arrayref of arguments which are passed to the
C<cond>s and to the replacement subs.

The C<under10>, C<under18> and C<welcome> are id attributes in the
tree of the siblings of which only one will survive. However, 
should you need to do
more complex look-downs to find the survivor, 
then supply an array ref instead of a simple
scalar:


  $if_then->highlander2(
    cond => [
      [class => 'r12'] => [
	sub { $_[0] < 10} , 
	\&replace_age
       ],
      [class => 'z22'] => [
	sub { $_[0] < 18} ,
	\&replace_age
       ],
      [class => 'w88'] => [
	sub { 1 },
	\&replace_age
       ]
     ],
    cond_arg => [ $age ]
		       );


=head3 $tree->overwrite_attr($mutation_attr => $mutating_closures)

This method is designed for taking a tree and reworking a set of nodes in 
a stereotyped fashion. For instance let's say you have 3 remote image 
archives, but you don't want to put long URLs in your img src
tags for reasons of abstraction, re-use and brevity. So instead you do this:

  <img src="/img/smiley-face.jpg" fixup="src lnc">
  <img src="/img/hot-babe.jpg"    fixup="src playboy">
  <img src="/img/footer.jpg"      fixup="src foobar">

and then when the tree of HTML is being processed, you make this call:

  my %closures = (
     lnc     => sub { my ($tree, $mute_node, $attr_value)= @_; "http://lnc.usc.edu$attr_value" },
     playboy => sub { my ($tree, $mute_node, $attr_value)= @_; "http://playboy.com$attr_value" }
     foobar  => sub { my ($tree, $mute_node, $attr_value)= @_; "http://foobar.info$attr_value" }
  )

  $tree->overwrite_attr(fixup => \%closures) ;

and the tags come out modified like so:

  <img src="http://lnc.usc.edu/img/smiley-face.jpg" fixup="src lnc">
  <img src="http://playboy.com/img/hot-babe.jpg"    fixup="src playboy">
  <img src="http://foobar.info/img/footer.jpg"      fixup="src foobar">

=head3 $tree->mute_elem($mutation_attr => $mutating_closures, [ $post_hook ] )

This is a generalization of C<overwrite_attr>. C<overwrite_attr> 
assumes the return value of the 
closure is supposed overwrite an attribute value and does it for you. 
C<mute_elem> is a more general function which does nothing but 
hand the closure the element and let it mutate it as it jolly well pleases :)

In fact, here is the implementation of C<overwrite_attr> 
to give you a taste of how C<mute_attr> is used:

 sub overwrite_action {
   my ($mute_node, %X) = @_;

   $mute_node->attr($X{local_attr}{name} => $X{local_attr}{value}{new});
 }


 sub HTML::Element::overwrite_attr {
   my $tree = shift;
  
   $tree->mute_elem(@_, \&overwrite_action);
 }




=head2 Tree-Building Methods



=head3 Unrolling an array via a single sample element (<ul> container)

This is best described by example. Given this HTML:

 <strong>Here are the things I need from the store:</strong>
 <ul>
   <li class="store_items">Sample item</li>
 </ul>

We can unroll it like so:

  my $li = $tree->look_down(class => 'store_items');

  my @items = qw(bread butter vodka);

  $tree->iter($li => @items);

To produce this:


 <html>
  <head></head>
  <body>Here are the things I need from the store:
    <ul>
      <li class="store_items">bread</li>
      <li class="store_items">butter</li>
      <li class="store_items">vodka</li>
    </ul>
  </body>
 </html>

Now, you might be wondering why the API call is:
 
  $tree->iter($li => @items)

instead of:

  $li->iter(@items)

and there is no good answer. The latter would be more concise and it is what I 
should have done.

=head3 Unrolling an array via n sample elements (<dl> container)

C<iter()> was fine for awhile, but some things
(e.g. definition lists) need a more general function to make them easy to
do. Hence C<iter2()>. This function will be explained by example of unrolling
a simple definition list.

So here's our mock-up HTML from the designer:

 <dl class="dual_iter" id="service_plan">
      <dt>
	Artist
      </dt>
      <dd>
	A person who draws blood.
      </dd>

      <dt>
	Musician
      </dt>
      <dd>
	A clone of Iggy Pop.
      </dd>

      <dt>
	Poet
      </dt>
      <dd>
	A relative of Edgar Allan Poe.
      </dd>

      <dt class="adstyle">sample header</dt>
      <dd class="adstyle2">sample data</dd>

 </dl>


And we want to unroll our data set:

 my @items = (
  ['the pros'   => 'never have to worry about service again'],
  ['the cons'   => 'upfront extra charge on purchase'],
  ['our choice' => 'go with the extended service plan']
 );


Now, let's make this problem a bit harder to show off the power of C<iter2()>.
Let's assume that we want only the last <dt> and it's accompanying <dd> 
(the one with "sample data") to be used as the sample data
for unrolling with our data set. Let's further assume that we want them to 
remain in the final output. 

So now, the API to C<iter2()> will be discussed and we will explain how our 
goal of getting our data into HTML fits into the API.

=over 4

=item * wrapper_ld

This is how to look down and find the container of all the elements we will
be unrolling. The <dl> tag is the container for the dt and dd tags we will be
unrolling.

If you pass an anonymous subroutine, then it is presumed that execution of
this subroutine will return the HTML::Element representing the container tag.
If you pass an array ref, then this will be dereferenced and passed to 
C<HTML::Element::look_down()>. 

default value: C<< ['_tag' => 'dl'] >>

Based on the mock HTML above, this default is fine for finding our container
tag. So let's move on.

=item * wrapper_data

This is an array reference of data that we will be putting into the container.
You must supply this. C<@items> above is our C<wrapper_data>.

=item * wrapper_proc

After we find the container via C<wrapper_ld>, we may want to pre-process
some aspect of this tree. In our case the first two sets of dt and dd need 
to be removed, leaving the last dt and dd. So, we supply a C<wrapper_proc>
which will do this.

default: undef

=item * item_ld

This anonymous subroutine returns an array ref of C<HTML::Element>s that will
be cloned and populated with item data 
(item data is a "row" of C<wrapper_data>).

default: returns an arrayref consisting of the dt and dd element inside the
container.

=item * item_data

This is a subroutine that takes C<wrapper_data> and retrieves one "row" 
to be "pasted" into the array ref of C<HTML::Element>s found via C<item_ld>.
I hope that makes sense.

default: shifts C<wrapper_data>.

=item * item_proc

This is a subroutine that takes the C<item_data> and the C<HTML::Element>s
found via C<item_ld> and produces an arrayref of C<HTML::Element>s which will
eventually be spliced into the container.

Note that this subroutine MUST return the new items. This is done
So that more items than were passed in can be returned. This is 
useful when, for example, you must return 2 dts for an input data item. 
And when would you do this? When a single term has multiple spellings
for instance.

default: expects C<item_data> to be an arrayref of two elements and 
C<item_elems> to be an arrayref of two C<HTML::Element>s. It replaces the
content of the C<HTML::Element>s with the C<item_data>.

=item * splice

After building up an array of C<@item_elems>, the subroutine passed as
C<splice> will be given the parent container HTML::Element and the 
C<@item_elems>. How the C<@item_elems> end up in the container is up to this
routine: it could put half of them in. It could unshift them or whatever.

default: C<< $container->splice_content(0, 2, @item_elems) >>
In other words, kill the 2 sample elements with the newly generated
@item_elems

=back

So now that we have documented the API, let's see the call we need:

 $tree->iter2(
  # default wrapper_ld ok. 
  wrapper_data => \@items,
  wrapper_proc => sub {
    my ($container) = @_;

    # only keep the last 2 dts and dds
    my @content_list = $container->content_list;
    $container->splice_content(0, @content_list - 2); 
  },

  # default item_ld is fine.
  # default item_data is fine.
  # default item_proc is fine. 
  splice       => sub {
    my ($container, @item_elems) = @_;
    $container->unshift_content(@item_elems);
  },
  debug => 1,
 );




=head3 Select Unrolling

The C<unroll_select> method has this API:

   $tree->unroll_select(
      select_label    => $id_label,
      option_value    => $closure, # how to get option value from data row
      option_content  => $closure, # how to get option content from data row
      option_selected => $closure, # boolean to decide if SELECTED
      data         => $data        # the data to be put into the SELECT
      data_iter    => $closure     # the thing that will get a row of data
      debug  => $boolean,
      append => $boolean,   # remove the sample <OPTION> data or append?
    );

Here's an example:

 $tree->unroll_select(
   select_label     => 'clan_list', 
   option_value     => sub { my $row = shift; $row->clan_id },
   option_content   => sub { my $row = shift; $row->clan_name },
   option_selected  => sub { my $row = shift; $row->selected },
   data             => \@query_results, 
   data_iter        => sub { my $data = shift; $data->next },
   append => 0,
   debug => 0
 );



=head2 Tree-Building Methods: Table Generation

Matthew Sisk has a much more intuitive (imperative)
way to generate tables via his module
L<HTML::ElementTable|HTML::ElementTable>. 
However, for those with callback fever, the following
method is available. First, we look at a nuts and bolts way to build a table
using only standard L<HTML::Tree> API calls. Then the C<table> method 
available here is discussed.

=head3 Sample Model

 package Simple::Class;
 
 use Set::Array;
 
 my @name   = qw(bob bill brian babette bobo bix);
 my @age    = qw(99  12   44    52      12   43);
 my @weight = qw(99  52   80   124     120  230);
 
 
 sub new {
     my $this = shift;
     bless {}, ref($this) || $this;
 }
 
 sub load_data {
     my @data;
 
     for (0 .. 5) {
 	push @data, { 
 	    age    => $age[rand $#age] + int rand 20,
 	    name   => shift @name,
 	    weight => $weight[rand $#weight] + int rand 40
 	    }
     }
 
   Set::Array->new(@data);
 }
 
 
 1;

=head3 $tree->table2() : New API Call to Unroll a Table

After 2 or 3 years with C<table()>, I began to develop 
production websites with it and decided it needed a cleaner
interface, particularly in the area of handling the fact that 
C<id> tags will be the same after cloning a table row.

First, I will give a dry listing of the function's argument parameters. 
This will not be educational most likely. A better way to understand how
to use the function is to read through the incremental unrolling of the 
function's interface given in conversational style after the dry listing.
But take your pick. It's the same information given in two different
ways.

=head4 Dry/technical parameter documentation

C<< $tree->table2(%param) >> takes the following arguments:

=over

=item * C<< table_ld => $look_down >> : optional

How to find the C<table> element in C<$tree>. If C<$look_down> is an 
arrayref, then use C<look_down>. If it is a CODE ref, then call it,
passing it C<$tree>.

Defaults to C<< ['_tag' => 'table'] >> if not passed in.

=item * C<< table_data => $tabular_data >> : required

The data to fill the table with. I<Must> be passed in.

=item * C<< table_proc => $code_ref >> : not implemented

A subroutine to do something to the table once it is found.
Not currently implemented. Not obviously necessary. Just
created because there is a C<tr_proc> and C<td_proc>.

=item * C<< tr_ld => $look_down >> : optional

Same as C<table_ld> but for finding the table row elements. Please note
that the C<tr_ld> is done on the table node that was found I<instead>
of the whole HTML tree. This makes sense. The C<tr>s that you want exist
below the table that was just found.

Defaults to C<< ['_tag' => 'tr'] >> if not passed in.

=item * C<< tr_data => $code_ref >> : optional

How to take the C<table_data> and return a row. Defaults to:

 sub { my ($self, $data) = @_;
      shift(@{$data}) ;
 }
				
=item * C<< tr_proc => $code_ref >> : optional

Something to do to the table row we are about to add to the
table we are making. Defaults to a routine which makes the C<id>
attribute unique:

 sub {
	my ($self, $tr, $tr_data, $tr_base_id, $row_count) = @_;
	$tr->attr(id => sprintf "%s_%d", $tr_base_id, $row_count);
 }

=item * C<< td_proc => $code_ref >> : required

This coderef will take the row of data and operate on the C<td> cells that
are children of the C<tr>. See C<t/table2.t> for several usage examples.

Here's a sample one:

 sub {
      my ($tr, $data) = @_;
      my @td = $tr->look_down('_tag' => 'td');
      for my $i (0..$#td) {
	$td[$i]->splice_content(0, 1, $data->[$i]);
      }
    }

=head4 Conversational parameter documentation

The first thing you need is a table. So we need a look down for that. If you
don't give one, it defaults to 

  ['_tag' => 'table']

What good is a table to display in without data to display?! 
So you must supply a scalar representing your tabular
data source. This scalar might be an array reference, a C<next>able iterator,
a DBI statement handle. Whatever it is, it can be iterated through to build 
up rows of table data.
These two required fields (the way to find the table and the data to
display in the table) are C<table_ld> and C<table_data>
respectively. A little more on C<table_ld>. If this happens to be a CODE ref, 
then execution
of the code ref is presumed to return the C<HTML::Element>
representing the table in the HTML tree.

Next, we get the row or rows which serve as sample C<tr> elements by doing
a C<look_down> from the C<table_elem>. While normally one sample row 
is enough to unroll a table, consider when you have alternating
table rows. This API call would need one of each row so that it can 
cycle through the
sample rows as it loops through the data. 
Alternatively, you could always just use one row and 
make the necessary changes to the single C<tr> row by 
mutating the element in C<tr_proc>, 
discussed below. The default C<tr_ld> is
C<< ['_tag' => 'tr'] >> but you can overwrite it. Note well, if you overwrite
it with a subroutine, then it is expected that the subroutine will return 
the C<HTML::Element>(s)
which are  C<tr> element(s). 
The reason a subroutine might be preferred is in the case
that the HTML designers gave you 8 sample C<tr> rows but only one 
prototype row is needed.
So you can write a subroutine, to splice out the 7 rows you don't need 
and leave the one sample
row remaining so that this API call can clone it and supply it to
the C<tr_proc> and C<td_proc> calls.

Now, as we move through the table rows with table data, 
we need to do two different things on
each table row:

=over 4

=item * get one row of data from the C<table_data> via C<tr_data>

The default procedure assumes the C<table_data> is an array reference and
shifts a row off of it:

   sub { my ($self, $data) = @_;
	 shift(@{$data}) ;
       }

Your function MUST return undef when there is no more rows to lay out.

=item * take the C<tr> element and mutate it via C<tr_proc>

The default procedure simply makes the id of the table row unique:

  sub { my ($self, $tr, $tr_data, $row_count, $root_id) = @_;
	$tr->attr(id => sprintf "%s_%d", $root_id, $row_count);
      }

=back

Now that we have our row of data, we call C<td_proc> so that it can
take the data and the C<td> cells in this C<tr> and process them. 
This function I<must> be supplied.


=head3 Whither a Table with No Rows

Often when a table has no rows, we want to display a message
indicating this to the view. Use conditional processing to decide what
to display:

	<span id=no_data>
		<table><tr><td>No Data is Good Data</td></tr></table>
	</span>
	<span id=load_data>
 <html>
 
   <table id="load_data">
 
     <tr>  <th>name</th><th>age</th><th>weight</th> </tr>
 
     <tr id="iterate">
 
         <td id="name">   NATURE BOY RIC FLAIR  </td>
         <td id="age">    35                    </td>
         <td id="weight"> 220                   </td>
 
     </tr>
 
   </table>
 
 </html>

	</span>

=item * highlander2

currently the API expects the subtrees to survive or be pruned to be
identified by id:

  $if_then->highlander2([
    under10 => sub { $_[0] < 10} , 
    under18 => sub { $_[0] < 18} ,
    welcome => [
      sub { 1 },
      sub { 
	my $branch = shift;
	$branch->look_down(id => 'age')->replace_content($age);
      }
     ]
   ],
			$age
		       );

but, it should be more flexible. the C<under10>, and C<under18> are
expected to be ids in the tree... but it is not hard to have a check to
see if this field is an array reference and if it, then to do a look
down instead:

  $if_then->highlander2([
    [class => 'under10'] => sub { $_[0] < 10} , 
    [class => 'under18'] => sub { $_[0] < 18} ,
    [class => 'welcome'] => [
      sub { 1 },
      sub { 
	my $branch = shift;
	$branch->look_down(id => 'age')->replace_content($age);
      }
     ]
   ],
			$age
		       );
