# = Haml (XHTML Abstraction Markup Language)
#
# Haml is a markup language
# that's used to cleanly and simply describe the XHTML of any web document,
# without the use of inline code.
# Haml functions as a replacement
# for inline page templating systems such as PHP, ERB, and ASP.
# However, Haml avoids the need for explicitly coding XHTML into the template,
# because it is actually an abstract description of the XHTML,
# with some code to generate dynamic content.
#
# == Features
#
# * Whitespace active
# * Well-formatted markup
# * DRY
# * Follows CSS conventions
# * Integrates Ruby code
# * Implements Rails templates with the .haml extension
#
# == Using Haml
#
# Haml can be used in three ways:
# as a plugin for Ruby on Rails,
# as a standalone Ruby module,
# and as a command-line tool.
# The first step for all of these is to install the Haml gem:
#
# gem install haml
#
# To enable it as a Rails plugin,
# then run
#
# haml --rails path/to/rails/app
#
# Once it's installed, all view files with the ".html.haml" extension
# will be compiled using Haml.
#
# To run Haml from the commandline, just use
#
# haml input.haml output.html
#
# Use <tt>haml --help</tt> for full documentation.
#
# You can access instance variables in Haml templates
# the same way you do in ERb templates.
# Helper methods are also available in Haml templates.
# For example (this example uses Rails, but the principle for Merb is the same):
#
# # file: app/controllers/movies_controller.rb
#
# class MoviesController < ApplicationController
# def index
# @title = "Teen Wolf"
# end
# end
#
# -# file: app/views/movies/index.haml
#
# #content
# .title
# %h1= @title
# = link_to 'Home', home_url
#
# may be compiled to:
#
# <div id='content'>
# <div class='title'>
# <h1>Teen Wolf</h1>
# <a href='/'>Home</a>
# </div>
# </div>
#
# === Ruby Module
#
# Haml can also be used completely separately from Rails and ActionView.
# To do this, install the gem with RubyGems:
#
# gem install haml
#
# You can then use it by including the "haml" gem in Ruby code,
# and using Haml::Engine like so:
#
# engine = Haml::Engine.new("%p Haml code!")
# engine.render #=> "<p>Haml code!</p>\n"
#
# == Characters with meaning to Haml
#
# Various characters, when placed at a certain point in a line,
# instruct Haml to render different types of things.
#
# === XHTML Tags
#
# These characters render XHTML tags.
#
# ==== %
#
#
# The percent character is placed at the beginning of a line.
# It's followed immediately by the name of an element,
# then optionally by modifiers (see below), a space,
# and text to be rendered inside the element.
# It creates an element in the form of <tt><element></element></tt>.
# For example:
#
# %one
# %two
# %three Hey there
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <one>
# <two>
# <three>Hey there</three>
# </two>
# </one>
#
# Any string is a valid element name;
# Haml will automatically generate opening and closing tags for any element.
#
# ==== {}
#
# Brackets represent a Ruby hash
# that is used for specifying the attributes of an element.
# It is literally evaluated as a Ruby hash,
# so logic will work in it and local variables may be used.
# Quote characters within the attribute
# will be replaced by appropriate escape sequences.
# The hash is placed after the tag is defined.
# For example:
#
# %html{:xmlns => "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml", "xml:lang" => "en", :lang => "en"}
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <html xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml' xml:lang='en' lang='en'></html>
#
# Attribute hashes can also be stretched out over multiple lines
# to accomidate many attributes.
# However, newlines may only be placed immediately after commas.
# For example:
#
# %script{:type => "text/javascript",
# :src => "javascripts/script_#{2 + 7}"}
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <script src='javascripts/script_9' type='text/javascript'></script>
#
# ===== Attribute Methods
#
# A Ruby method call that returns a hash
# can be substituted for the hash contents.
# For example, Haml::Helpers defines the following method:
#
# def html_attrs(lang = 'en-US')
# {:xmlns => "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml", 'xml:lang' => lang, :lang => lang}
# end
#
# This can then be used in Haml, like so:
#
# %html{html_attrs('fr-fr')}
#
# This is compiled to:
#
# <html lang='fr-fr' xml:lang='fr-fr' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'>
# </html>
#
# You can use as many such attribute methods as you want
# by separating them with commas,
# like a Ruby argument list.
# All the hashes will me merged together, from left to right.
# For example, if you defined
#
# def hash1
# {:bread => 'white', :filling => 'peanut butter and jelly'}
# end
#
# def hash2
# {:bread => 'whole wheat'}
# end
#
# then
#
# %sandwich{hash1, hash2, :delicious => true}/
#
# would compile to:
#
# <sandwich bread='whole wheat' delicious='true' filling='peanut butter and jelly' />
#
# Note that the Haml attributes list has the same syntax as a Ruby method call.
# This means that any attribute methods must come before the hash literal.
#
# ===== Boolean Attributes
#
# Some attributes, such as "checked" for <tt>input</tt> tags or "selected" for <tt>option</tt> tags,
# are "boolean" in the sense that their values don't matter -
# it only matters whether or not they're present.
# In HTML (but not XHTML), these attributes can be written as
#
# <input selected>
#
# To do this in Haml, just assign a Ruby true value to the attribute:
#
# %input{:selected => true}
#
# In XHTML, the only valid value for these attributes is the name of the attribute.
# Thus this will render in XHTML as
#
# <input selected='selected'>
#
# To set these attributes to false, simply assign them to a Ruby false value.
# In both XHTML and HTML
#
# %input{:selected => false}
#
# will just render as
#
# <input>
#
# ==== []
#
# Square brackets follow a tag definition and contain a Ruby object
# that is used to set the class and id of that tag.
# The class is set to the object's class
# (transformed to use underlines rather than camel case)
# and the id is set to the object's class, followed by its id.
# Because the id of an object is normally an obscure implementation detail,
# this is most useful for elements that represent instances of Models.
# Additionally, the second argument (if present) will be used as a prefix for
# both the id and class attributes.
# For example:
#
# # file: app/controllers/users_controller.rb
#
# def show
# @user = CrazyUser.find(15)
# end
#
# -# file: app/views/users/show.haml
#
# %div[@user, :greeting]
# %bar[290]/
# Hello!
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <div class='greeting_crazy_user' id='greeting_crazy_user_15'>
# <bar class='fixnum' id='fixnum_581' />
# Hello!
# </div>
#
# ==== /
#
# The forward slash character, when placed at the end of a tag definition,
# causes the tag to be self-closed.
# For example:
#
# %br/
# %meta{'http-equiv' => 'Content-Type', :content => 'text/html'}/
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <br />
# <meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html' />
#
# Some tags are automatically closed, as long as they have no content.
# +meta+, +img+, +link+, +script+, +br+, and +hr+ tags are closed by default.
# This list can be customized by setting the <tt>:autoclose</tt> option (see below).
# For example:
#
# %br
# %meta{'http-equiv' => 'Content-Type', :content => 'text/html'}
#
# is also compiled to:
#
# <br />
# <meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html' />
#
# ==== . and #
#
# The period and pound sign are borrowed from CSS.
# They are used as shortcuts to specify the <tt>class</tt>
# and <tt>id</tt> attributes of an element, respectively.
# Multiple class names can be specified in a similar way to CSS,
# by chaining the class names together with periods.
# They are placed immediately after the tag and before an attributes hash.
# For example:
#
# %div#things
# %span#rice Chicken Fried
# %p.beans{ :food => 'true' } The magical fruit
# %h1.class.otherclass#id La La La
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <div id='things'>
# <span id='rice'>Chicken Fried</span>
# <p class='beans' food='true'>The magical fruit</p>
# <h1 class='class otherclass' id='id'>La La La</h1>
# </div>
#
# And,
#
# #content
# .articles
# .article.title
# Doogie Howser Comes Out
# .article.date
# 2006-11-05
# .article.entry
# Neil Patrick Harris would like to dispel any rumors that he is straight
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <div id='content'>
# <div class='articles'>
# <div class='article title'>Doogie Howser Comes Out</div>
# <div class='article date'>2006-11-05</div>
# <div class='article entry'>
# Neil Patrick Harris would like to dispel any rumors that he is straight
# </div>
# </div>
# </div>
#
# ==== Implicit Div Elements
#
# Because the div element is used so often, it is the default element.
# If you only define a class and/or id using the <tt>.</tt> or <tt>#</tt> syntax,
# a div element is automatically used.
# For example:
#
# #collection
# .item
# .description What a cool item!
#
# is the same as:
#
# %div{:id => collection}
# %div{:class => 'item'}
# %div{:class => 'description'} What a cool item!
#
# and is compiled to:
#
# <div id='collection'>
# <div class='item'>
# <div class='description'>What a cool item!</div>
# </div>
# </div>
#
# ==== > and <
#
# <tt>></tt> and <tt><</tt> give you more control over the whitespace near a tag.
# <tt>></tt> will remove all whitespace surrounding a tag,
# while <tt><</tt> will remove all whitespace immediately within a tag.
# You can think of them as alligators eating the whitespace:
# <tt>></tt> faces out of the tag and eats the whitespace on the outside,
# and <tt><</tt> faces into the tag and eats the whitespace on the inside.
# They're placed at the end of a tag definition,
# after class, id, and attribute declarations
# but before <tt>/</tt> or <tt>=</tt>.
# For example:
#
# %blockquote<
# %div
# Foo!
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <blockquote><div>
# Foo!
# </div></blockquote>
#
# And:
#
# %img
# %img>
# %img
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <img /><img /><img />
#
# And:
#
# %p<= "Foo\nBar"
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <p>Foo
# Bar</p>
#
# And finally:
#
# %img
# %pre><
# foo
# bar
# %img
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <img /><pre>foo
# bar</pre><img />
#
# ==== =
#
# <tt>=</tt> is placed at the end of a tag definition,
# after class, id, and attribute declarations.
# It's just a shortcut for inserting Ruby code into an element.
# It works the same as <tt>=</tt> without a tag:
# it inserts the result of the Ruby code into the template.
# However, if the result is short enough,
# it is displayed entirely on one line.
# For example:
#
# %p= "hello"
#
# is not quite the same as:
#
# %p
# = "hello"
#
# It's compiled to:
#
# <p>hello</p>
#
# ==== ~
#
# ~ works just like =, except that it runs Haml::Helpers#find_and_preserve on its input.
# For example,
#
# ~ "Foo\n<pre>Bar\nBaz</pre>"
#
# is the same as:
#
# = find_and_preserve("Foo\n<pre>Bar\nBaz</pre>")
#
# and is compiled to:
#
# Foo
# <pre>Bar&#x000A;Baz</pre>
#
# See also Whitespace Preservation, below.
#
# === XHTML Helpers
#
# ==== No Special Character
#
# If no special character appears at the beginning of a line,
# the line is rendered as plain text.
# For example:
#
# %gee
# %whiz
# Wow this is cool!
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <gee>
# <whiz>
# Wow this is cool!
# </whiz>
# </gee>
#
# ==== !!!
#
# When describing XHTML documents with Haml,
# you can have a document type or XML prolog generated automatically
# by including the characters <tt>!!!</tt>.
# For example:
#
# !!! XML
# !!!
# %html
# %head
# %title Myspace
# %body
# %h1 I am the international space station
# %p Sign my guestbook
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
# <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
# <html>
# <head>
# <title>Myspace</title>
# </head>
# <body>
# <h1>I am the international space station</h1>
# <p>Sign my guestbook</p>
# </body>
# </html>
#
# You can also specify the version and type of XHTML after the <tt>!!!</tt>.
# XHTML 1.0 Strict, Transitional, and Frameset and XHTML 1.1 are supported.
# The default version is 1.0 and the default type is Transitional.
# For example:
#
# !!! 1.1
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
#
# and
#
# !!! Strict
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
#
# If you're not using the UTF-8 character set for your document,
# you can specify which encoding should appear
# in the XML prolog in a similar way.
# For example:
#
# !!! XML iso-8859-1
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <?xml version='1.0' encoding='iso-8859-1' ?>
#
# ==== /
#
# The forward slash character, when placed at the beginning of a line,
# wraps all text after it in an HTML comment.
# For example:
#
# %peanutbutterjelly
# / This is the peanutbutterjelly element
# I like sandwiches!
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <peanutbutterjelly>
# <!-- This is the peanutbutterjelly element -->
# I like sandwiches!
# </peanutbutterjelly>
#
# The forward slash can also wrap indented sections of code. For example:
#
# /
# %p This doesn't render...
# %div
# %h1 Because it's commented out!
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <!--
# <p>This doesn't render...</p>
# <div>
# <h1>Because it's commented out!</h1>
# </div>
# -->
#
# You can also use Internet Explorer conditional comments
# (about)[http://www.quirksmode.org/css/condcom.html]
# by enclosing the condition in square brackets after the <tt>/</tt>.
# For example:
#
# /[if IE]
# %a{ :href => 'http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/' }
# %h1 Get Firefox
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <!--[if IE]>
# <a href='http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/'>
# <h1>Get Firefox</h1>
# </a>
# <![endif]-->
#
# ==== \
#
# The backslash character escapes the first character of a line,
# allowing use of otherwise interpreted characters as plain text.
# For example:
#
# %title
# = @title
# \- MySite
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <title>
# MyPage
# - MySite
# </title>
#
# ==== |
#
# The pipe character designates a multiline string.
# It's placed at the end of a line
# and means that all following lines that end with <tt>|</tt>
# will be evaluated as though they were on the same line.
# For example:
#
# %whoo
# %hoo I think this might get |
# pretty long so I should |
# probably make it |
# multiline so it doesn't |
# look awful. |
# %p This is short.
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <whoo>
# <hoo>
# I think this might get pretty long so I should probably make it multiline so it doesn't look awful.
# </hoo>
# <p>This is short</p>
# </whoo>
#
# ==== :
#
# The colon character designates a filter.
# This allows you to pass an indented block of text as input
# to another filtering program and add the result to the output of Haml.
# The syntax is simply a colon followed by the name of the filter.
# For example,
#
# %p
# :markdown
# Textile
# =======
#
# Hello, *World*
#
# is compiled to
#
# <p>
# <h1>Textile</h1>
#
# <p>Hello, <em>World</em></p>
# </p>
#
# Filters can have Ruby code interpolated, like with ==.
# For example,
#
# - flavor = "raspberry"
# #content
# :textile
# I *really* prefer _#{h flavor}_ jam.
#
# is compiled to
#
# <div id='content'>
# <p>I <strong>really</strong> prefer <em>raspberry</em> jam.</p>
# </div>
#
# Haml has the following filters defined:
#
# [plain] Does not parse the filtered text.
# This is useful for large blocks of text without HTML tags,
# when you don't want lines starting with <tt>.</tt> or <tt>-</tt>
# to be parsed.
#
# [javascript] Surrounds the filtered text with <script> and CDATA tags.
# Useful for including inline Javascript.
#
# [escaped] Works the same as plain, but HTML-escapes the text
# before placing it in the document.
#
# [ruby] Parses the filtered text with the normal Ruby interpreter.
# All output sent to <tt>$stdout</tt>, like with +puts+,
# is output into the Haml document.
# Not available if the <tt>suppress_eval</tt> option is set to true.
# The Ruby code is evaluated in the same context as the Haml template.
#
# [preserve] Inserts the filtered text into the template with whitespace preserved.
# <tt>preserve</tt>d blocks of text aren't indented,
# and newlines are replaced with the HTML escape code for newlines,
# to preserve nice-looking output.
# See also Whitespace Preservation, below.
#
# [erb] Parses the filtered text with ERB, like an RHTML template.
# Not available if the <tt>suppress_eval</tt> option is set to true.
# Embedded Ruby code is evaluated in the same context as the Haml template.
#
# [sass] Parses the filtered text with Sass to produce CSS output.
#
# [textile] Parses the filtered text with Textile (http://www.textism.com/tools/textile).
# Only works if RedCloth is installed.
#
# [markdown] Parses the filtered text with Markdown (http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown).
# Only works if RDiscount, RPeg-Markdown, Maruku, or BlueCloth are installed.
#
# [maruku] Parses the filtered text with Maruku, which has some non-standard extensions to Markdown.
#
# You can also define your own filters (see Haml::Filters).
#
# === Ruby evaluators
#
# ==== =
#
# The equals character is followed by Ruby code,
# which is evaluated and the output inserted into the document as plain text.
# For example:
#
# %p
# = ['hi', 'there', 'reader!'].join " "
# = "yo"
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <p>
# hi there reader!
# yo
# </p>
#
# If the <tt>:escape_html</tt> option is set, <tt>=</tt> will sanitize any
# HTML-sensitive characters generated by the script. For example:
#
# = '<script>alert("I\'m evil!");</script>'
#
# would be compiled to
#
# &lt;script&gt;alert(&quot;I'm evil!&quot;);&lt;/script&gt;
#
# ==== -
#
# The hyphen character makes the text following it into "silent script":
# Ruby script that is evaluated, but not output.
#
# <b>It is not recommended that you use this widely;
# almost all processing code and logic should be restricted
# to the Controller, the Helper, or partials.</b>
#
# For example:
#
# - foo = "hello"
# - foo << " there"
# - foo << " you!"
# %p= foo
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <p>
# hello there you!
# </p>
#
# ==== ==
#
# Two equals characters interpolates Ruby code into plain text,
# similarly to Ruby string interpolation.
# For example,
#
# %p== This is #{h quality} cake!
#
# is the same as
#
# %p= "This is #{h quality} cake!"
#
# and might compile to
#
# <p>This is scrumptious cake!</p>
#
# Backslashes can be used to escape "#{" strings,
# but they don't act as escapes anywhere else in the string.
# For example:
#
# %p
# == \\ Look at \\#{h word} lack of backslash: \#{foo}
#
# might compile to
#
# <p>
# \\ Look at \yon lack of backslash: #{foo}
# </p>
#
# ==== &=
#
# An ampersand followed by one or two equals characters
# evaluates Ruby code just like the equals without the ampersand,
# but sanitizes any HTML-sensitive characters in the result of the code.
# For example:
#
# &= "I like cheese & crackers"
#
# compiles to
#
# I like cheese &amp; crackers
#
# If the <tt>:escape_html</tt> option is set,
# &= behaves identically to =.
#
# ==== !=
#
# An exclamation mark followed by one or two equals characters
# evaluates Ruby code just like the equals would,
# but never sanitizes the HTML.
#
# By default, the single equals doesn't sanitize HTML either.
# However, if the <tt>:escape_html</tt> option is set, = will sanitize the HTML, but != still won't.
# For example, if <tt>:escape_html</tt> is set:
#
# = "I feel <strong>!"
# != "I feel <strong>!"
#
# compiles to
#
# I feel &lt;strong&gt;!
# I feel <strong>!
#
# ===== Blocks
#
# Ruby blocks, like XHTML tags, don't need to be explicitly closed in Haml.
# Rather, they're automatically closed, based on indentation.
# A block begins whenever the indentation is increased
# after a silent script command.
# It ends when the indentation decreases
# (as long as it's not an +else+ clause or something similar).
# For example:
#
# - (42...47).each do |i|
# %p= i
# %p See, I can count!
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <p>
# 42
# </p>
# <p>
# 43
# </p>
# <p>
# 44
# </p>
# <p>
# 45
# </p>
# <p>
# 46
# </p>
#
# Another example:
#
# %p
# - case 2
# - when 1
# = "1!"
# - when 2
# = "2?"
# - when 3
# = "3."
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <p>
# 2?
# </p>
#
# ==== -#
#
# The hyphen followed immediately by the pound sign
# signifies a silent comment.
# Any text following this isn't rendered in the resulting document
# at all.
#
# For example:
#
# %p foo
# -# This is a comment
# %p bar
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <p>foo</p>
# <p>bar</p>
#
# You can also nest text beneath a silent comment.
# None of this text will be rendered.
# For example:
#
# %p foo
# -#
# This won't be displayed
# Nor will this
# %p bar
#
# is compiled to:
#
# <p>foo</p>
# <p>bar</p>
#
# == Other Useful Things
#
# === Whitespace Preservation
#
# Sometimes you don't want Haml to indent all your text.
# For example, tags like +pre+ and +textarea+ are whitespace-sensitive;
# indenting the text makes them render wrong.
#
# Haml deals with this by "preserving" newlines before they're put into the document --<
