If you wanna \*(L"scrub\*(R" or \*(L"sanitize\*(R" html input
in a reliable an flexible fashion,
then this module is for you.
.PP
I wasn't satisfied with HTML::Sanitizer because it is
based on HTML::TreeBuilder,
so I thought I'd write something similar
that works directly with HTML::Parser.

.SH "How does it work?"
.IX Header "How does it work?"
When a tag is encountered, HTML::Scrubber
allows/denies the tag using the explicit rule if one exists.
.PP
If no explicit rule exists, Scrubber applies the default rule.
.PP
If an explicit rule exists,
but it's a simple \fIrule\fR\|(1),
the default attribute rule is applied.
