I know that I got the module name wrong, but for what I want to do, HTML::LinkExtor doesn't go far enough.

My app filters out headlines but I want the active link and the text description. As far as I can tell from playing with HTML::LinkExtor, all I can get is the link, not the text and the link. I couldn't work out how you would pull the link text as it has no anchor tag.

HTML::TokeParser seems to be the best way for me to go for my project. However if I've missed something with HTML::LinkExtor, let me know and I'll take another look at that.

Some people fall from grace. I prefer a running start...
