# XML DOM Implementation for Go

This is a library to programmatically create, read, and modify XML

documents using Go without marshaling/unmarshaling them into

structures. It somewhat follows the XML DOM specification with the

following exceptions:

 * This implementation preserves and exposes XML namespace prefixes

 * Elements can be created with namespaces and prefixes

 * CDATA sections are converted to text nodes

 

## Namespace Normalization

The `Document` interface has a `NormalizeNamespaces()` method that

should be called before serializing the document. It does the following:

 * If there are elements/attributes with namespaces with no associated

   prefixes, then it create prefixes for them

 * If there are elements/attributes with prefixes that are not

   defined, it returns error

   

## Serialization

To parse XML documents, use the `Parse` function with an

`xml.Decoder.` By changing the `Strict` and `Entities` fields of a

`Decoder`, this parser can be used to parse HTML data.

To encode a `Document` as XML, first call `NormalizeNamespaces()`

function, and then use the `Encode` function.
