public class MinimalHTMLWriter
extends AbstractWriter

MinimalHTMLWriter is a fallback writer used by the HTMLEditorKit to write out HTML for a document that is a not produced by the EditorKit. The format for the document is:

 <html>
   <head>
     <style>
        <!-- list of named styles
         p.normal {
            font-family: SansSerif;
            margin-height: 0;
            font-size: 14
         }
        -->
      </style>
   </head>
   <body>
    <p style=normal>
        Bold, italic, and underline attributes
        of the run are emitted as HTML tags.
        The remaining attributes are emitted as
        part of the style attribute of a <span> tag.
        The syntax is similar to inline styles.
    </p>
   </body>
 </html>

    Parameters:
    attr - an AttributeSet.
    
    Throws:

    IOException - on any I/O error
  - writeHeader
```
protected void writeHeader()

```
    Writes out the <head> and <style> tags, and then invokes writeStyles() to write out all the named styles as the content of the <style> tag. The content is surrounded by valid HTML comment markers to ensure that the document is viewable in applications/browsers that do not support the tag.
    
    Throws:

    Iterates over the elements in the document and processes elements based on whether they are branch elements or leaf elements. This method specially handles leaf elements that are text.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - on any I/O error
    
    BadLocationException

protected void writeEndParagraph()
                          throws IOException
```
    Emits an end tag for a <p> tag. Before writing out the tag, this method ensures that all other tags that have been opened are appropriately closed off.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - on any I/O error
  - writeStartParagraph
```
protected void writeStartParagraph(Element elem)
                            throws IOException
```
    Emits the start tag for a paragraph. If the paragraph has a named style associated with it, then this method also generates a class attribute for the <p> tag and sets its value to be the name of the style.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - on any I/O error
  - writeLeaf
```
protected void writeLeaf(Element elem)
                  throws IOException

    IOException - on any I/O error
  - writeImage
```
protected void writeImage(Element elem)
                   throws IOException
```
    Responsible for handling Icon Elements; deliberately unimplemented. How to implement this method is an issue of policy. For example, if you're generating an <img> tag, how should you represent the src attribute (the location of the image)? In certain cases it could be a URL, in others it could be read from a stream.
    
    Parameters:
    elem - element of type StyleConstants.IconElementName
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - writeComponent
```
protected void writeComponent(Element elem)
                       throws IOException
```
    Responsible for handling Component Elements; deliberately unimplemented. How this method is implemented is a matter of policy.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - isText
```
protected boolean isText(Element elem)
```
    Returns true if the element is a text element.
  - writeContent
```
protected void writeContent(Element elem,
                boolean needsIndenting)
                     throws IOException,
                            BadLocationException
```
    Writes out the attribute set in an HTML-compliant manner.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - on any I/O error
    
    BadLocationException - if pos represents an invalid location within the document.
  - writeHTMLTags
```
protected void writeHTMLTags(AttributeSet attr)
                      throws IOException
```
    Generates bold <b>, italic <i>, and <u> tags for the text based on its attribute settings.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - on any I/O error
  - writeNonHTMLAttributes
```
protected void writeNonHTMLAttributes(AttributeSet attr)
                               throws IOException
```
    Writes out the remaining character-level attributes (attributes other than bold, italic, and underline) in an HTML-compliant way. Given that attributes such as font family and font size have no direct mapping to HTML tags, a <span> tag is generated and its style attribute is set to contain the list of remaining attributes just like inline styles.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - on any I/O error
  - inFontTag
```
protected boolean inFontTag()
```
    Returns true if we are currently in a <font> tag.
  - endFontTag
```
protected void endFontTag()
                   throws IOException
```
    This is no longer used, instead <span> will be written out.
    Writes out an end tag for the <font> tag.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - on any I/O error
  - startFontTag
```
protected void startFontTag(String style)
                     throws IOException
```
    This is no longer used, instead <span> will be written out.
    Writes out a start tag for the <font> tag. Because font tags cannot be nested, this method closes out any enclosing font tag before writing out a new start tag.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - on any I/O error
