HTML-Tree version {{$version}}, released {{$date}}
{{ $zilla->is_trial
? "THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT RELEASE FOR TESTING PURPOSES ONLY.\n" : '' }}
This distribution contains a suite of modules for representing,
creating, and extracting information from HTML syntax trees; there is
also relevent documentation. These modules used to be part of the
libwww-perl distribution, but are now unbundled in order to facilitate
a separate development track. Bug reports and discussions about these
modules can be sent to the RT queue at <[email protected]>.
The modules and documentation present in this collection are:
HTML::Tree -- overview of the modules.
HTML::Tree::AboutObjects -- an article by Sean M. Burke from
The Perl Journal #17: "User's View of Object-Oriented Modules"
HTML::Tree::AboutTrees -- an article by Sean M. Burke from
The Perl Journal #18: "Trees", about tree-shaped data
structures in Perl.
HTML::Tree::Scanning -- an article by Sean M. Burke from
The Perl Journal #19: "Scanning HTML".
HTML::Element - class for representing the nodes of the HTML syntax
trees. The elements have other elements and text segments
as children. The HTML::Element class has methods to build,
alter, and traverse the structure of the tree.
HTML::TreeBuilder - a class that uses HTML::Parser to read HTML
document text and build from it a syntax tree made of
HTML::Element nodes.
HTML::Parse - deprecated module. Now just a wrapper around
HTML::TreeBuilder
HTML::AsSubs - module providing an easy way to build an HTML syntax
tree by nesting functions.
