<leohtml> is a HTML precompiler for static page generation.
</div>
</p>
<p>
When I created my homepage I had the problem that HTML
is a very simple document language. I missed many features
of a real programming language. The compiler solves some of
these problems.
</p>
<p>
The idea behind <leohtml> is to create new HTML tags. These
tags will be detected and processed by the compiler.
</p>
<p>
Maybe you wanna see an example:
<example mode=fixed>
<char latin1>
Define a simple tag:
<define name=mail PAR_1_STRING=to>
function mail( to ) {
print( "<a href=\"mailto:\"" + to + "\">" + to + "</a>" );
}
</define>
Calling the tag:
That's my email address: <mail to=kingleo@gmx.at>.
</char>
</example>

<fsection title="Who should use <leohtml>?">
I'm a programmer. I can't stand HTML. It's to simple. So I created this
application.<br>
But it's not necessary to be a programmer to use <leohtml>. You should
known HTML and if you wan't to create larger pages you should be
common with Java Script. That's all.<br>
And of course, you should be able to create a webpage without a
WYSIWYG tool. Of course, if you wan't you can create a page first
with such a tool, to use its output as the base for your project
with <leohtml>. But I think that makes not much sense.
</fsection>
<fsection title="Can I use <leohtml> for dynamic page genearation like php?">
<leohtml> was never designed for dynamic page generation. If you write a
apache module it would be possible, but the compiler will be to slow.
Use it for what is was created for: static page generation.
</fsection>
<fsection title="Why should I use <leohtml> and not WML instead?">
The difference between WML and <leohtml> is that WML uses a
meta language and <leohtml> simply tries to extend HTML.<br>
Of course the output will be the same, but it is your choise
which one of the tools you wan't to use.<br>
In fact <leohtml> is smaller and maybe a little bit easier
to use than WML. For very large projects WML will be your tool.<br>
I think <leohtml> is better for the small stuff. But as you can see
on this page and first of all on the documentation as on <person kingleo>'s webpage,
large projects are possible too.<br>
But on both systems, if you do not use a strict design for webpage generation,
you will have many problems.
