Thanks for that!

I'll be looking at that tomorrow for certain, but I do have one question. My program is taking headlines off of newspaper sites, but at the moment I'm using LWP::Simple with get(URL), dumping it in to an array, then reading through to a certain pre-determined point, and then using a regex to get the info I want.

Is HTML::TokeParser going to allow me to do that type of thing or will I have to write new "rules" to determine what is a headline and what is just a link on the page?

Thanks again!

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