This [[Module Library|XQuery Module]] provides functions for converting HTML to XML. The input Conversion will only be converted take place if [http://home.ccil.org/~cowan/XML/tagsoup/ TagSoup] is included in the classpath (see [[Parsers#HTML Parser|HTML Parsing]] for more details).

All functions and errors in this module are assigned to the {{Code|<code><nowiki>http://basex.org/modules/html}} </nowiki></code> namespace, which is statically bound to the {{Code|html}} prefix.<br/>All errors are assigned to the {{Code|http://basex.org/errors}} namespace, which is statically bound to the {{Code|bxerr}} prefix.
