<dd>
<ul class="subclass-list">
<li><a href="lxml.html.HtmlEntity-class.html">html.HtmlEntity</a></li> </ul>
</dd></dl>
<hr />
<p>All custom Entity classes must inherit from this one.</p>
<p>To create an XML Entity instance, use the <tt class="rst-docutils literal">Entity()</tt> factory.</p>
<p>Subclasses <em>must not</em> override __init__ or __new__ as it is
absolutely undefined when these objects will be created or
destroyed. All persistent state of Entities must be stored in the
underlying XML. If you really need to initialize the object after
creation, you can implement an <tt class="rst-docutils literal">_init(self)</tt> method that will be
called after object creation.</p>
