Based on advise from Michel Rodriguez, author of XML::Twig, I am trying to employ ->findnodes() to parse from an html file a the content of each li tag. This is what I've got so far:
sub parse_mm_archive_cycle {
my $self = shift;
my $base_url = shift;
my $cycle = shift;
$cycle =~ s/:$//;
my $url = "$base_url/$cycle/date.html";
print STDERR $url, "\n";
$self->{'agent'}->get( $url );
my $html = $self->{'agent'}->content();
$self->{'twig'}->parseurl($url,$self->{'agent'});
print STDERR 'Our twig objects is: ' . Dumper($self->{'twig'});
# $self->{'twig'}->parseurl($url);
# my $root = $self->{'twig'}->root;
for my $story ($self->{'twig'}->findnodes("li")){
print STDERR 'Next story: ' . Dumper($story);
}
return; # $html;
}
But this keeps throwing an error on the ->parseurl line, reading:
syntax error at line 1, column 48, byte 48 at /usr/lib/perl5/XML/Parse
+r.pm line 187
at lib/CF/mmFeedParser.pm line 113
Can anyone who has used this before please offer some advise?
if( $lal && $lol ) { $life++; }
if( $insurance->rationing() ) { $people->die(); }

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
