NAME

HTML::HTML5::Parser::Error - an error that occurred during parsing

DESCRIPTION

The error_handler and errors methods of HTML::HTML5::Parser generate HTML::HTML5::Parser::Error objects.

HTML::HTML5::Parser::Error overloads stringification, so can be printed, matched against regular expressions, etc.

Note that HTML::HTML5::Parser is not a validation tool, and there are many classes of error that it does not care about, so will not raise.

Constructor

new(level=>$level, type=>$type, token=>$token, ...)

Constructs a new HTML::HTML5::Parser::Error object.

Methods

level

Returns the level of error. ('MUST', 'SHOULD', 'WARN', 'INFO' or undef.)

layer

Returns the parsing layer involved, often undef. e.g. 'encode'.

type

Returns the type of error as a string.

tag_name

Returns the tag name (if any).

source_line
($line, $col) = $error->source_line();
$line = $error->source_line;

In scalar context, source_line returns the line number of the source code that triggered the error.

In list context, returns a line/column pair. (Tab characters count as one column, not eight.)

to_string

Returns a friendly error string.
