HTML::Parser is not the easiest way of parsing HTML.
Besides Corion's suggestion about HTML::HeadParser, if
you need to parse more than the document's title, you may
want to get acquainted with HTML::TokeParser. Here
is a way of finding the title:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use HTML::TokeParser;
my $p = HTML::TokeParser->new('index.html') or die "can't open\n";
while (my $token = $p->get_token)
{
if ($token->[0] eq "S" and lc $token->[1] eq 'title')
{
my $title = $p->get_text() || "<NO TITLE FOUND>";
print "$title\n";
last;
}
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
