The following three chapters document, respectively, the predicates for HTML/XML/CGI programming, the predicate for HTTP conectivity, and the types used in the definition of the predicates (key for fully understanding the other predicates). You can find a paper and some additional information in the <A NAME="IDX6572"></A> <CODE>library/pillow/doc</CODE> directory of the distribution, and in the WWW at <A HREF="http://clip.dia.fi.upm.es/Software/pillow/pillow.html">http://clip.dia.fi.upm.es/Software/pillow/pillow.html</A>.
