-Extracting inline CSS from HTML Purifier
- voodoofied: Assigning semantics to elements
-
-Sander Tekelenburg brought to my attention the poor programming style of
-inline CSS in HTML documents. In an ideal world, we wouldn't be using inline
-CSS at all: everything would be assigned using semantic class attributes
-from an external stylesheet.
-
-With ExtractStyleBlocks and CSSTidy, this is now possible (when allowed, users
-can specify a style element which gets extracted from the user-submitted HTML, which
-the application can place in the head of the HTML document). But there still
-is the issue of inline CSS that refuses to go away.
-
-The basic idea behind this feature is assign every element a unique identifier,
-and then move all of the CSS data to a style-sheet. This HTML:
-
-<div style="text-align:center">Big <span style="color:red;">things</span>!</div>
-
-into
-
-<div id="hp-12345">Big <span id="hp-12346">things</span>!</div>
-
-and a stylesheet that is:
-
-#hp-12345 {text-align:center;}
-#hp-12346 {color:red;}
-
-Beyond that, HTML Purifier can magically merge common CSS values together,
-and a whole manner of other heuristic things. HTML Purifier should also
-make it easy for an admin to re-style the HTML semantically. Speed is not
-an issue. Also, better WYSIWYG editors are needed.
