Introduction

NQXML is a pure Ruby implementation of a non-validating XML processor. It includes an XML tokenizer, a SAX-style streaming XML parser, a DOM-style tree XML Parser, and an XML writer. ``NQ'' stands for ``Not Quite''. Please read the Limitations section of the README file.

Ruby 1.8 now ships with REXML, an excellent XML parser for Ruby by Sean Russell. It includes XPath support. You should probably use that instead of NQXML.

Ruby is an object-oriented scripting language by Yukihiro Matsumoto. Visit the official Ruby Web site for more information.

The XML specification lives on The World Wide Web Consortium's Web site.

NQXML is developed and maintained by Jim Menard, jimm@io.com. The official Web page of NQXML is http://nqxml.sourceforge.net, where the latest release may be found.
