note 42469 added to ref.tidy

After some difficulty, I managed to get the PECL extension going on 4.3x. Here are my observations: INSTALLATION OF TIDY FOR PHP 4.3X (CLARIFICATION) 1. Get libtidy source from http://tidy.sourceforge.net/src/tidy_src.tgz. Run the following commands to unpack and install: tar -zvxf tidy_src.tgz cd tidy/build/gmake make all make install 2. Download Tidy as Pecl extension directly from http://pecl.php.net/get/tidy-1.0.tgz. Run the following commands to unpack and install: tar -zvxf tidy-xxx.tar cd tidy-xxx phpize ./configure && make && make install 3. Add extension=tidy.so to your php.ini file and restart Apache. Then you should see... tidy Tidy support enabled libTidy Build Date 1st May 2004 Directive Local Value Master Value tidy.default_config no value no value . in your phpinfo(); HOW USEFUL IS TIDY IN 4.3X AS OPPOSED TO PHP >= 5.X.X As far as I can tell, many of the tidy functions are not available in 4.3X. Since the ability to traverse the HTML document with tidy_node is only available in PHP >= 5.0.0, the only useful functions in PHP 4.3x seem to be: tidy_parse_string($html); tidy_clean_repair(); $clean_html = tidy_get_output(); Hope that helps someone.
