Description

<type 'type'> extends (<class 'gluon.html.XmlComponent'>,)


    HTML helper, for easy generating and manipulating a DOM structure.
    Little or no validation is done.

    Behaves like a dictionary regarding updating of attributes.
    Behaves like a list regarding inserting/appending components.

    example::

        >>> DIV('hello', 'world', _style='color:red;').xml()
        '<div style="color:red;">helloworld</div>'

    all other HTML helpers are derived from DIV.

    _something="value" attributes are transparently translated into
    something="value" HTML attributes

Attributes


DIV.__class__	<type 'type'> extends (<type 'object'>,) belongs to class <type 'type'> type(object) -> the object's type type(name, bases, dict) -> a new type

DIV.__delattr__	<type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> x.__delattr__('name') <==> del x.name

DIV.__delitem__	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> deletes attribute with name 'i' or component #i. :param i: index if i is a string: the name of the attribute otherwise references to number of the component

DIV.__dict__	<type 'dictproxy'> belongs to class <type 'dictproxy'>

DIV.__doc__	<type 'str'> belongs to class <type 'str'> str(object) -> string Return a nice string representation of the object. If the argument is a string, the return value is the same object.

DIV.__getattribute__	<type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> x.__getattribute__('name') <==> x.name

DIV.__getitem__	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> gets attribute with name 'i' or component #i. If attribute 'i' is not found returns None :param i: index if i is a string: the name of the attribute otherwise references to number of the component

DIV.__hash__	<type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> x.__hash__() <==> hash(x)

DIV.__init__	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> :param components: any components that should be nested in this element :param *attributes: any attributes you want to give to this element :raises SyntaxError: when a stand alone tag receives components

DIV.__len__	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> returns the number of included components

DIV.__module__	<type 'str'> belongs to class <type 'str'> str(object) -> string Return a nice string representation of the object. If the argument is a string, the return value is the same object.

DIV.__new__	<type 'builtin_function_or_method'> belongs to class <type 'builtin_function_or_method'> T.__new__(S, ...) -> a new object with type S, a subtype of T

DIV.__nonzero__	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> always return True

DIV.__reduce__	<type 'method_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'method_descriptor'> helper for pickle

DIV.__reduce_ex__	<type 'method_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'method_descriptor'> helper for pickle

DIV.__repr__	<type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> x.__repr__() <==> repr(x)

DIV.__setattr__	<type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> x.__setattr__('name', value) <==> x.name = value

DIV.__setitem__	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> sets attribute with name 'i' or component #i. :param i: index if i is a string: the name of the attribute otherwise references to number of the component :param value: the new value

DIV.__str__	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> str(COMPONENT) returns equals COMPONENT.xml()

DIV.__weakref__	<type 'getset_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'getset_descriptor'> list of weak references to the object (if defined)

DIV._fixup	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> Handling of provided components. Nothing to fixup yet. May be overridden by subclasses, eg for wrapping some components in another component or blocking them.

DIV._postprocessing	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> Handling of attributes (normally the ones not prefixed with '_'). Nothing to postprocess yet. May be overridden by subclasses

DIV._setnode	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>

DIV._traverse	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>

DIV._validate	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> nothing to validate yet. May be overridden by subclasses

DIV._wrap_components	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> helper for _fixup. Checks if a component is in allowed_parents, otherwise wraps it in wrap_parent :param allowed_parents: (tuple) classes that the component should be an instance of :param wrap_parent: the class to wrap the component in, if needed :param wrap_lambda: lambda to use for wrapping, if needed

DIV._xml	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> helper for xml generation. Returns separately: - the component attributes - the generated xml of the inner components Component attributes start with an underscore ('_') and do not have a False or None value. The underscore is removed and the name will be in lower case. A value of True is replaced with the attribute name. :returns: tuple: (attributes, components)

DIV.append	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> list style appending of components

DIV.element	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> find the first component that matches the supplied attribute dictionary, or None if nothing could be found Also the components of the components are searched.

DIV.elements	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> find all component that match the supplied attribute dictionary, or None if nothing could be found All components of the components are searched.

DIV.insert	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> list style inserting of components

DIV.sibling	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> find the first sibling component that match the supplied argument list and attribute dictionary, or None if nothing could be found

DIV.siblings	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> find all sibling components that match the supplied argument list and attribute dictionary, or None if nothing could be found

DIV.tag	<type 'str'> belongs to class <type 'str'> str(object) -> string Return a nice string representation of the object. If the argument is a string, the return value is the same object.

DIV.update	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> dictionary like updating of the tag attributes

DIV.xml	<type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'> generates the xml for this component.
