=head1 NAME

HTML::FillInForm::Lite - Lightweight FillInForm module in Pure Perl

=head1 VERSION

The document describes HTML::FillInForm::Lite version 1.10

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use HTML::FillInForm::Lite;
    use CGI;

    my $q = CGI->new();
    my $h = HTML::FillInForm::Lite->new();

    $output = $h->fill(\$html,    $q);
    $output = $h->fill(\@html,    \%data);
    $output = $h->fill(\*HTML,    \&my_param);
    $output = $h->fill('t.html', [$q, \%default]);

    # or as a class method with options
    $output = HTML::FillInForm::Lite->fill(\$html, $q,
        fill_password => 0, # it is default
        ignore_fields => ['foo', 'bar'],
        target        => $form_id,
    );

    # Moreover, it accepts any object as form data
    # (these classes come form Class::DBI's SYNOPSIS)

    my $artist = Music::Artist->insert({ id => 1, name => 'U2' });
    $output = $h->fill(\$html, $artist);

    my $cd = Music::CD->retrieve(1);
    $output = $h->fill(\$html, $cd);

    # simple function interface
    use HTML::FillInForm::Lite qw(fillinform);

    # the same as HTML::FillInForm::Lite->fill(...)
    $output = fillinform(\$html, $q);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module fills in HTML forms with Perl data,
which re-implements C<HTML::FillInForm> using regexp-based parser,
not using C<HTML::Parser>.

The difference in the parsers makes C<HTML::FillInForm::Lite> about 2
times faster than C<HTML::FillInForm>.

=head1 FUNCTIONS

=head2 fillinform(source, form_data)

Simple interface to the C<fill()> method, accepting only a string.
If you pass a single argument to this function, it is interpreted as
I<form_data>, and returns a function that accepts I<source>.

    my $fillinform = fillinform($query);
    $fillinform->($html); # the same as fillinform($html, $query)

This function is exportable.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 new(options...)

Creates C<HTML::FillInForm::Lite> processor with I<options>.

There are several options. All the options are disabled when C<undef> is
supplied.

Acceptable options are as follows:

=over 4

=item fill_password => I<bool>

To enable passwords to be filled in, set the option true.

Note that the effect of the option is the same as that of C<HTML::FillInForm>,
but by default C<HTML::FillInForm::Lite> ignores password fields.

=item ignore_fields => I<array_ref_of_fields>

To ignore some fields from filling.

=item target => I<form_id>

To fill in just the form identified by I<form_id>.

=item escape => I<bool> | I<ref>

If true is provided (or by default), values filled in text fields will be
HTML-escaped, e.g. C<< <tag> >> to be C<< &lt;tag&gt; >>.

If the values are already HTML-escaped, set the option false.

You can supply a subroutine reference to escape the values.

Note that it is not implemented in C<HTML::FillInForm>.

=item decode_entity => I<bool> | I<ref>

If true is provided , HTML entities in state fields
(namely, C<radio>, C<checkbox> and C<select>) will be decoded,
but normally it is not needed.

You can also supply a subroutine reference to decode HTML entities.

Note that C<HTML::FillInForm> always decodes HTML entities in state fields,
but not supports this option.

=item layer => I<:iolayer>

To read a file with I<:iolayer>. It is used when a file name is supplied as
I<source>.

For example:

    # To read a file encoded in UTF-8
    $fif = HTML::FillInForm::Lite->new(layer => ':utf8');
    $output = $fif->fill($utf8_file, $fdat);

    # To read a file encoded in EUC-JP
    $fif = HTML::FillInForm::Lite->new(layer => ':encoding(euc-jp)');
    $output = $fif->fill($eucjp_file, $fdat);

Note that it is not implemented in C<HTML::FillInForm>.

=back

=head2 fill(source, form_data [, options...])

Fills in I<source> with I<form_data>. If I<source> or I<form_data> is not
supplied, it will cause C<die>.

I<options> are the same as C<new()>'s.

You can use this method as a both class or instance method,
but you make multiple calls to C<fill()> with the B<same>
options, it is a little faster to call C<new()> and store the instance.

I<source> may be a scalar reference, an array reference of strings, or
a file name.

I<form_data> may be a hash reference, an object with C<param()> method,
an object with accessors, a code reference, or an array reference of
those above mentioned.

If I<form_data> is based on procedures (i.e. not a hash reference),
the procedures will be called in the list context.
Therefore, to leave some fields untouched, it must return a null list C<()>,
not C<undef>.

=head1 DEPENDENCIES

Perl 5.8.1 or later.

=head1 NOTES

=head2 Compatibility with C<HTML::FillInForm>

This module implements only the new syntax of C<HTML::FillInForm>
version 2. However, C<HTML::FillInForm::Lite::Compat> provides
an interface compatible with C<HTML::FillInForm>.

=head2 Compatibility with legacy HTML

This module is designed to process XHTML 1.x.

And it also supporting a good part of HTML 4.x , but there are some
limitations. First, it doesn't understand HTML-attributes that the name is
omitted.

For example:

    <INPUT TYPE=checkbox NAME=foo CHECKED> -- NG.
    <INPUT TYPE=checkbox NAME=foo CHECKED=checked> - OK, but obsolete.
    <input type="checkbox" name="foo" checked="checked" /> - OK, valid XHTML

Then, it always treats the values of attributes case-sensitively.
In the example above, the value of C<type> must be lower-case.

Moreover, it doesn't recognize omitted closing tags, like:

    <select name="foo">
        <option>bar
        <option>baz
    </select>

When you can't get what you want, try to give your source to a HTML lint.

=head2 Comment handling

This module processes all the processable, not knowing comments
nor something that shouldn't be processed.

It may cause problems. Suppose there is a code like:

    <script> document.write("<input name='foo' />") </script>

C<HTML::FillInForm::Lite> will break the code:

    <script> document.write("<input name='foo' value="bar" />") </script>

To avoid such problems, you can use the C<ignore_fields> option.

=head1 BUGS

No bugs have been reported.
