We define a family of embedded domain specific languages for generating HTML and XML documents. Each language is implemented as a combinator library in Haskell. The generated HTML/XML documents are guaranteed to be well-formed. In addition, each library can guarantee that the generated documents are valid XML documents to a certain extent (for HTML only a weaker guarantee is possible). On top of the libraries, Haskell serves as a meta language to define parameterized documents, to map structured documents to HTML/XML, to define conditional content, or to define entire web sites. The combinator libraries support element-transforming style, a programming style that allows programs to have a visual appearance similar to HTML/XML documents, without modifying the syntax of Haskell.
