<h2>DESCRIPTION
<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
</h2>



<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>bib2xhtml</b>
converts a bibtex-format bibliography file to XHTML.
<i>sourcefile</i> may be either a BibTeX-format bibliography
(<b>.bib</b>) file or a LaTeX-fomatted bibliography
auxillary file (<b>.aux</b>). <i>htmlfile</i> will often be
just part of a larger XHTML file; <b>bib2xhtml</b> attempts
to update the XHTML file in place. It does this by searching
<i>htmlfile</i> for two special strings, which delimit the
bibliography part of the file. These strings are the XHTML
comments</p>

<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">&lt;!-- BEGIN
BIBLIOGRAPHY <i>delimiter</i> --&gt;</p>

<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">&lt;!-- END
BIBLIOGRAPHY <i>delimiter</i> --&gt;</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If these
delimiters are found, the old bibliography between them is
replaced with the new bibliography. Otherwise the new
bibliography, with the appropriate delimiters, is appended
to the end of <i>htmlfile</i>, and it will be necessary to
move it to the proper location by hand. Note that it is
possible for <i>htmlfile</i> to contain any number of
bibliographies, and they may be updated independently. If no
<i>htmlfile</i> is specified, the bibliography is written to
standard output.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The tag of each
BibTeX bibliography entry is converted into a name anchor
(&lt;A NAME=&quot;tag&quot;&gt;) in <i>htmlfile</i>, and may
be used to construct a link to this particular entry.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">By default the
contents of the bibliography are determined by the contents
of the <i>sourcefile</i>. It is also possible to specify the
contents of the bibliography in the <i>htmlfile</i> itself
by setting the <b>-i</b> option and using two special
strings to delimit the citations to be used for generating
the bibliography. These strings are the XHTML comments</p>

<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">&lt;!-- BEGIN
CITATIONS <i>delimiter</i> --&gt;</p>

<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">&lt;!-- END
CITATIONS <i>delimiter</i> --&gt;</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If these
delimiters are found, the contents between them are searched
for XHTML comments containing the citations (one citation
per line), for example</p>

<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">&lt;!-- BEGIN
CITATIONS <i>delimiter</i> --&gt;</p>

<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">&lt;!--
\citation{knuth:1997} <br>
\citation{knuth:1984} --&gt;</p>

<p style="margin-left:22%; margin-top: 1em">&lt;!-- END
CITATIONS <i>delimiter</i> --&gt;</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">These citations
are then used for choosing the bibliography entries from the
<i>sourcefile</i>.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>Special
Field Processing</b> <br>
Several BibTeX fields are treated specially. The filenames
specified in the <b>postscript</b>, <b>pdf</b>, and
<b>dvi</b> fields are relative to the <i>htmlfile</i>
directory. In addition, <b>bib2xhtml</b> recognizes
compressed or gzipped files (those with filenames ending in
<b>.Z</b>, <b>.gz</b>, or <b>.z</b>).</p>

<table width="100%" border="0" rules="none" frame="void"
       cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr valign="top" align="left">
<td width="11%"></td>
<td width="9%">


<p><b>url</b></p></td>
<td width="2%"></td>
<td width="78%">


<p>If the <b>url</b> field exists, a link
(&lsquo;&lsquo;A&rsquo;&rsquo; tag) is created. The
destination of the link is the <b>url</b> tag&rsquo;s value.
The bibliography entry&rsquo;s title is the source of the
link. This can be used to create a link to a XHTML version
of the paper, or to a version that is available by ftp.</p></td></tr>
<tr valign="top" align="left">
<td width="11%"></td>
<td width="9%">


<p><b>mailto</b></p></td>
<td width="2%"></td>
<td width="78%">


<p>If the <b>mailto</b> field exists, a link
(&lsquo;&lsquo;A&rsquo;&rsquo; tag) is created. The
destination of the link is the <b>mailto</b> tag&rsquo;s
value. The bibliography entry&rsquo;s author name is the
source of the link.</p></td></tr>
</table>

<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>postscript</b></p>

<p style="margin-left:22%;">If the <b>postscript</b> field
exists, its value is used as the name of a PostScript file.
<b>bib2xhtml</b> creates a link to the file, and updates
<i>htmlfile</i> with the number of pages and size of the
PostScript file.</p>

<table width="100%" border="0" rules="none" frame="void"
       cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr valign="top" align="left">
<td width="11%"></td>
<td width="4%">


<p><b>doi</b></p></td>
<td width="7%"></td>
<td width="78%">


<p>If the <b>doi</b> field exists, its value is used as the
designation of a digital object identifier. <b>bib2xhtml</b>
creates a link to the object through
<i>http://dx.doi.org</i> and updates <i>htmlfile</i> with
the <b>doi</b> as a hyperlink. The <b>doi</b> should
normally be in a canonical form like the following:
<i>doi:10.1145/363347.363387.</i> However, if the <b>doi</b>
designator is formed as an HTTP hyperlink, it will be
converted to the canonical form by replacing the HTTP
protocol designation and the host name of the hyperlink with
the <i>doi:</i> literal string.</p></td></tr>
<tr valign="top" align="left">
<td width="11%"></td>
<td width="4%">


<p><b>pdf</b></p></td>
<td width="7%"></td>
<td width="78%">


<p>If the <b>pdf</b> field exists, its value is used as the
name of a PDF (portable document format) file.
<b>bib2xhtml</b> creates a link to the file and updates
<i>htmlfile</i> with the size of the PDF file.</p></td></tr>
<tr valign="top" align="left">
<td width="11%"></td>
<td width="4%">


<p><b>dvi</b></p></td>
<td width="7%"></td>
<td width="78%">


<p>If the <b>dvi</b> field exists, its value is used as the
name of a TeX DVI file. <b>bib2xhtml</b> creates a link to
the file and updates <i>htmlfile</i> with the number of
pages and size of the DVI file.</p></td></tr>
</table>

<p style="margin-left:11%;"><b>author</b>,
<b>keywords</b></p>

<p style="margin-left:22%;">The full <b>author</b> and
<b>keywords</b> fields of each BibTeX entry are included in
<i>htmlfile</i> as XHTML comments, and may be used by CGI
scripts (such as <b>bibsearch</b>, which is supplied) to
select only certain entries.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>Hints <br>
bib2xhtml</b>&rsquo;s LaTeX to XHTML conversion is not very
smart. If something isn&rsquo;t being converted correctly,
try doing it in a different way.</p>


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>bib2xhtml</b>
does not currently understand <i>\verb</i>. To get a tilde
into a filename or an embedded URL, use <i>\~{}</i>. On the
other hand, entries containing <i>URL</i> fields or
<i>\url{}</i> commands, are correctly converted into
hyperlinks. Leave such hyperlinks as they are; do not embed
any LaTeX commands in them.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The lists that
<b>bib2xhtml</b> generates contain CSS hooks of the class
<i>bib2xhtml</i>. You can therefore modify the appearance of
the lists by adding style entries like the following in the
web page&rsquo;s header.</p>
<pre style="margin-left:11%;">       &lt;style type=&quot;text/css&quot;&gt;
            dl.bib2xhtml dd { padding-bottom: 1em }
       &lt;/style&gt;


       &lt;style type=&quot;text/css&quot;&gt;
            ul.bib2xhtml li { padding-bottom: 1em }
       &lt;/style&gt;</pre>


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The value of
the named attributes can contain arbitrary HTML markup
commands, and can thus be used for substituting the text
with icons. For example, the following Unix command can be
used for creating stand-alone PDF icons.</p>

<pre style="margin-left:11%;">    perl bib2xhtml -e &rsquo;nosize,nopages,PDF:&lt;img src=&quot;pdficon_small.gif&quot;
      alt=&quot;PDF&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&rsquo; example.bib example.html</pre>


<p style="margin-left:11%;">Unser the Windows shell the
corresponding command would be.</p>

<pre style="margin-left:11%;">    perl bib2xhtml -e &quot;nosize,nopages,PDF:&lt;img src=&rsquo;pdficon_small.gif&rsquo;
      alt=&rsquo;PDF&rsquo; border=&rsquo;0&rsquo; /&gt;&quot; example.bib example.html</pre>


<p style="margin-left:11%;">A couple of PDF icons and the
conditions for their use are available at

bulleted list. A <b>plain</b> bibliography is a numbered
list. <b>paragraph</b> produces just paragraphs (no
bullets). <b>unsort</b> is like <b>plain</b> except that the
entries in the XHTML file are in the same order as as they
are in the source file. <b>unsortlist</b> is like
<b>unsort</b> but entry labels are bullets instead of
numbers. An <b>alpha</b> bibliography has labels that are in
the BibTeX alpha style. A <b>named</b> bibliography has
labels of the form [name, year].</p>

<h2>HISTORY
<a name="HISTORY"></a>
</h2>


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The program was
originally written as <b>bib2html</b> by David Hull in 1996,
who maintained it until 1998 (version 1.33). In 2002, due to
the lack of visible updates on the web, the program was
adopted for maintenance, distribution, and further evolution
by Diomidis Spinellis. Changes made by him include support
for XHTML 1.0 and documentation bug fixes. The first public
release of the maintenance effort was in 2004 (version 2.1).
On March 2004 the program was renamed into <b>bib2xhtml</b>
to avoid confusion with projects using the name <b>bib2html
.</b> Panos Louridas (<i>louridas@aueb.gr</i>) added the
functionality for including the citations in the <i>htmlfile
.</i></p>
