Question

I am using libtidy with php. I am using xampp and it shows that tidy support is enabled. But when i use it in my code then it shows the following warning

repairString() [function.repairString]: Could not load configuration file tidy-file.php

i also tried using the object-oriented version but i again got the warning

tidy_repair_string() [function.tidy-repair-string]: Could not load configuration file tidy-file.php

i have kept the tidy code in a separate file called tidy-file.php. it looks like this

$options = array("output-xhtml" => true,"clean" => true, "drop-proprietary-attributes" => true,"drop-font-tags" => true,"drop-empty-paras" => true,"hide-comments" => true); 
function getXHTML($html)
{
$xhtml=tidy_repair_string($html,$options);
return $xhtml;
}

what can be wrong

Answer 1

From what you’ve shown here, you’re trying to use a variable that’s defined outside the function. You need to pull it inside like so:

function getXHTML($html)
{
  $options = array("output-xhtml" => true,"clean" => true, "drop-proprietary-attributes" => true,"drop-font-tags" => true,"drop-empty-paras" => true,"hide-comments" => true); 
  $xhtml=tidy_repair_string($html,$options);
  return $xhtml;
}
