.Sh DESCRIPTION
The mandoc HTML formatter is not a formal library.
However, as it is compiled into more than one program, in particular
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Vt struct html
Internal state of the HTML formatter.
-.It Vt struct htmlpair
-Holds one HTML attribute.
-Members are
-.Fa "enum htmlattr key"
-and
-.Fa "const char *val" .
-Helper macros
-.Fn PAIR_*
-are provided to support initialization of such structures.
.It Vt struct tag
One entry for the LIFO stack of HTML elements.
Members are
.Fn print_otag
prints the start tag of an HTML element with the name
.Fa tag ,
-including the
-.Fa sz
-attributes that can optionally be provided in the
-.Fa p
-array.
-It uses the private function
-.Fn print_attr
-which in turn uses the private function
+optionally including the attributes specified by
+.Fa fmt .
+If
+.Fa fmt
+is the empty string, no attributes are written.
+Each letter of
+.Fa fmt
+specifies one attribute to write.
+Most attributes require one
+.Va char *
+argument which becomes the value of the attribute.
+The arguments have to be given in the same order as the attribute letters.
+If an argument is
+.Dv NULL ,
+the respective attribute is not written.
+.Bl -tag -width 1n -offset indent
+.It Cm c
+Print a
+.Cm class
+attribute.
+This attribute letter can optionally be followed by the modifier letter
+.Cm T .
+In that case, a
+.Cm title
+attribute with the same value is also printed.
+.It Cm h
+Print a
+.Cm href
+attribute.
+This attribute letter can optionally be followed by a modifier letter.
+If followed by
+.Cm R ,
+it formats the link as a local one by prefixing a
+.Sq #
+character.
+If followed by
+.Cm I ,
+it interpretes the argument as a header file name
+and generates a link using the
+.Xr mandoc 1
+.Fl O Cm includes
+option.
+If followed by
+.Cm M ,
+it takes two arguments instead of one, a manual page name and
+section, and formats them as a link to a manual page using the
+.Xr mandoc 1
+.Fl O Cm man
+option.
+.It Cm i
+Print an
+.Cm id
+attribute.
+.It Cm \&?
+Print an arbitrary attribute.
+This format letter requires two
+.Vt char *
+arguments, the attribute name and the value.
+The name must not be
+.Dv NULL .
+.It Cm s
+Print a
+.Cm style
+attribute.
+If present, it must be the last format letter.
+In contrast to the other format letters, this one does not yet
+print the value and does not take an argument.
+Instead, the rest of the format string consists of pairs of
+argument type letters and style name letters.
+.El
+.Pp
+Argument type letters each require one argument as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width 1n -offset indent
+.It Cm h
+Requires one
+.Vt int
+argument, interpreted as a horizontal length in units of
+.Dv SCALE_EN .
+.It Cm s
+Requires one
+.Vt char *
+argument, used as a style value.
+.It Cm u
+Requires one
+.Vt struct roffsu *
+argument, used as a length.
+.It Cm v
+Requires one
+.Vt int
+argument, interpreted as a vertical length in units of
+.Dv SCALE_VS .
+.It Cm w
+Requires one
+.Vt char *
+argument, interpreted as an
+.Xr mdoc 7 Ns -style
+width specifier.
+If the argument is
+.Dv NULL ,
+nothing is printed for this pair.
+.Pp
+The
+.Cm w
+argument type letter can optionally be followed by one or two
+modifier letters.
+The modifier
+.Cm +
+increases the width by 10% to make even bold text fit
+and adds two units for padding between columns.
+The modifier
+.Cm \-
+makes the width negative by multiplying it with \-1.
+.El
+.Pp
+Style name letters decide what to do with the preceding argument:
+.Bl -tag -width 1n -offset indent
+.It Cm b
+Set
+.Cm margin-bottom
+to the given length.
+.It Cm h
+Set
+.Cm height
+to the given length.
+.It Cm i
+Set
+.Cm text-indent
+to the given length.
+.It Cm l
+Set
+.Cm margin-left
+to the given length.
+.It Cm t
+Set
+.Cm margin-top
+to the given length.
+.It Cm w
+Set
+.Cm width
+to the given length.
+.It Cm W
+Set
+.Cm min-width
+to the given length.
+.It Cm \&?
+The special pair
+.Cm s?
+requires two
+.Vt char *
+arguments.
+The first is the style name, the second its value.
+The style name must not be
+.Dv NULL .
+.El
+.Pp
+.Fn print_otag
+uses the private function
.Fn print_encode
to take care of HTML encoding.
If required by the element type, it remembers in
.Fn print_tagq
functions.
.Pp
-The functions
-.Fn bufinit ,
-.Fn bufcat* ,
-and
-.Fn buffmt*
-do not directly produce output but buffer text in the
-.Fa buf
-member of
-.Fa h .
-They are not used internally by
-.Pa html.c
-but intended for use by the language-specific formatters
-to ease preparation of strings for the
-.Fa p
-argument of
-.Fn print_otag
-and for the
-.Fa word
-argument of
-.Fn print_text .
-Consequently, these functions do not do any HTML encoding.
+The function
+.Fn html_make_id
+takes a node containing one or more text children
+and returns a newly allocated string containing the concatenation
+of the child strings, with blanks replaced by underscores.
+If the node
+.Fa n
+contains any non-text child node,
+.Fn html_make_id
+returns
+.Dv NULL
+instead.
+The caller is responsible for freeing the returned string.
+.Pp
+The function
+.Fn html_strlen
+counts the number of characters in
+.Fa cp .
+It is used as a crude estimate of the width needed to display a string.
