Text & HTML

SIML allows you to specify text using regular quoted strings:

NOTE: All regular text has the following characters escaped: >, <, ", &.

title 'The title'

Or:

title "The title"

(Generating)

<title>The title</title>

Text is treated as a descendant of the element, so you can nest it like so:

div {
  'some interesting text... '
  "some more..."
}

There is a also a text attribute if you wish to be more explicit:

div {
  text: 'some text...';
  //...
  "This will just be appended"
}

Another example:

ul {
  li a 'link1'
  li a 'link2'
  li a 'link3'
  li a 'link4'
}

(which generates):

<ul>
  <li><a>link1</a></li>
  <li><a>link2</a></li>
  <li><a>link3</a></li>
  <li><a>link4</a></li>
</ul>

Multiline text in here-doc style

body '''
 Here is some here text ...
 'I can use quotes within...'
 <html> is escaped!
'''

To "break out" of SIML and use regular HTML simply use the back-tick delimiter (can also be in here-doc style):

body ```
  <strong>Actual HTML!</strong>
```

body `<span>Single line <em>HTML!!</em></span>`
