in thread Parse html file

Hi davido,

This is what I need to extract from the html file: 

Relay Status Information

FillDB File Size Limit:
0.09% ( 2772 / 3145728 Bytes )
FillDB File Count Limit:
0.01% ( 1 / 10000 Files )

Here is a sample of the html file:

My work environment is very strict so I am very limited in what modules can be installed.

Thanks

    I see you have HTML::TreeBuilder installed. This is one way you can use that:

    Update: changed slightly to avoid errors

    my $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder->new;
$tree->parse_file($file);
$tree->eof;

my @divs = $tree->find_by_attribute('class','formline');
for my $div (@divs) {
    my $label_div = $div->look_down('class','formlabel') or next;
    my $label = $label_div->as_text;
    my $input_div = $div->look_down('class','forminput') or next;
    my $input = $input_div->as_text;
    print "$label $input\n";
}

      Thanks tangent, your solution pulled the data.

      any idea what this error is referring to?

      Can't call method "as_text" on an undefined value

        There are probably some divs with class 'formline' but without the interior divs - I have updated the code above to deal with that.
