in thread Parsing Web Page

Would the minus-voters on my response please tell me what is wrong with my post? Okay, it may be a bit jovial, but the solution I offer works, and even after rereading the original problem several times I think this solution fits the proposition 100%... In fact, I used this solution myself for almost exactly the same problem...

Maybe I upset a few PHP'rs?

    Your post was ok until you mentioned PHP when it become flamebait. No, I'm not PHP fan. No I didn't downvoted you because you actually have good answer. But trolling is inappropriate for perlmonks and many people will downvote you even if you have good answer.

      Ok... Cool... Point taken... No more flamebait out of my mouth!

      Just to clarify; I used to be a PHP-coder myself until someone showed me the wonderfull world of Perl and more notably CPAN. That's where I long ago found HTML::TreeBuilder amongst many other modules. Which is why the term PHP came to mind...
