Re: Re: Unique spidering need

Well, the WW::Mechanize part I can handle. It would be a IFRAME or A tag with a given URL as the SRC or HREF attribute. And basically, I need to know if it appears in the top left 800x600 pixels in the browser window. but having the X/Y coords would be better.

I would probably use the *libgtkhtml* library to do the HTML rendering part. I haven't got a linux box handy to verify this at the moment, but I am sure that you would be able to get the level of control you seek with the library.	[reply]

Installing Gtk::HTML (actually getting all the *-dev packages I need from Debian). We'll see how it goes. The best part will be if I can do this without installing XFree on my server.	[reply]
