# class Nokogiri::HTML::Builder

Nokogiri HTML builder is used for building HTML documents. It is very similar to the Nokogiri::XML::Builder. In fact, you should go read the documentation for Nokogiri::XML::Builder before reading this documentation.

## Synopsis:¶ ↑

Create an HTML document with a body that has an onload attribute, and a span tag with a class of “bold” that has content of “Hello world”.

    builder = Nokogiri::HTML::Builder.new do |doc|
      doc.html {
        doc.body(:onload => 'some_func();') {
          doc.span.bold {
            doc.text "Hello world"
          }
        }
      }
    end
    puts builder.to_html

The HTML builder inherits from the XML builder, so make sure to read the Nokogiri::XML::Builder documentation.
