# tidy_parse_string

(PHP 5)

tidy_parse_string -- Parse a document stored in a string

## Description

Procedural style:

tidy tidy_parse_string ( string input [, mixed config [, string encoding]] )

Object oriented style:

bool tidy->parseString ( string input [, mixed config [, string encoding]] )

tidy_parse_string() parses a document stored in a string.

The config parameter can be passed either as an array or as a string. If you pass it as a string, it means the name of the configuration file, otherwise it is interpreted as the options themselves. Check http://tidy.sourceforge.net/docs/quickref.html for an explanation about each option.

The encoding parameter sets the encoding for input/output documents. The possible values for encoding are: ascii, latin0, latin1, raw, utf8, iso2022, mac, win1252, ibm858, utf16, utf16le, utf16be, big5 and shiftjis.

Example 1. tidy_parse_string() example
`<?php ob_start(); ?> <html> <head> <title>test</title> </head> <body> <p>error<br>another line</i> </body> </html> <?php $buffer = ob_get_clean(); $config = array('indent' => TRUE, 'output-xhtml' => TRUE, 'wrap' => 200); $tidy = tidy_parse_string($buffer, $config, 'UTF8'); $tidy->cleanRepair(); echo $tidy; ?>`
The above example will output:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
        "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
      <head>
        <title>
          test
        </title>
      </head>
      <body>
        <p>
          error<br />
          another line
        </p>
      </body>
    </html>

> Note: The optional parameters config and encoding were added in Tidy 2.0.
