Summary
LURE is an attempt to implement a hybrid xml/html DOM parser and renderer for the Love2d game engine. The goal of LURE is to provide the following:
- A non-validating xml/html parser which generates a (somewhat) W3C Standards complaint DOM Object for use with love.
- A html renderer which will display html markup in the love window.
Although we have a working prototype of the xml/html parser and DOM Object, we do not yet have a working renderer. Given the sheer size of the W3C DOM specification, this area will serve to document and track the current status of DOM Interface implementations.
Lure's purpose will NOT be to implement a web browser in Love2d, that is just ridiculous :D Instead, Lure's purpose will be to provide the core xml/html DOM interfaces allowing Lovers the ability to to work with xml/html data structures and to render basic html to the love window for simple UI.
