I've been staring a this for an hour now and I'm throwing in the towel. I am attempting to scrape some data from a web page. Here's a snippet with some of the data I'm trying to extract: 
    <span itemprop="thumbnail" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/I
+mageObject">
        <link itemprop="url" href="http://blahblah.org/video/thumbnail
+_23432230.jpg">
        <meta itemprop="width" content="1280">
        <meta itemprop="height" content="720">
    </span>

I want to grab the value of the href property form the <link> tag with the Web::Scraper module. Here's the relevant perl code: 
    my $div = scraper {
      process 'span[itemprop="thumbnail"] > link', url => '@href';
    };

    my $res = $div->scrape( $html );

    $url = $res->{url};

No matter what I try, $url returns undefined. I'm using version .36 of the Web::Scraper module. </code>
