NAME¶

htmlclean - a small script to clean up existing HTML

SYNOPSIS¶

htmlclean [-v] [-V] file1 [file2 file3 ...]

DESCRIPTION¶

This program provides a command-line interface to the HTML::Clean module, which can help you to provide more compatible, smaller HTML files at the expense of reducing the human readability of the HTML code. In some cases you may be able to reduce the size of your HTML by up to 50%!

The HTML::Clean library provides a number of features that improve your HTML for browsing and serving:

htmlclean passes each file given on the command line to the library and writes out the new HTML according to the specified options. The default is to create a backup file and replace the file with cleaned HTML.

Removing whitespace, Comments and other useless or redundant constructs

Insuring that font tags work across multiple operating systems

For full details see the documentations for HTML::Clean itself.
