recovering

Usage

recovering expression

Description

Turn on recovering parser mode if the expression is non-zero or off otherwise. Defaults to off. Note, that the in the recovering mode, validation is not performed by the parser even if the validation flag is on and that recovering mode flag only influences parsing of XML documents (not HTML).

The recover mode helps to efficiently recover documents that are almost well-formed. This for example includes documents without a close tag for the document element (or any other element inside the document).

This command is equivalent to setting the $RECOVERING variable.
