I am looking at being able to extract all plain text and analyse/amend from HTML/XHTML document and then replace if needed. Can I do this using HTML::Parser or should it be XML::Parser?
Are there any good demonstrations that anyone knows of?
You should also look at Web::Scraper.
I find this module easier than the HTML::Parser modules, but it helps if your are familiar with XPath.
Parsing of HTML is very unpredictable depending on the actual pages – it is like pdf-display and not data-oriented.
