To see the dependancies for HTML::TokeParser::Simple, go to http://search.cpan.org/src/OVID/HTML-TokeParser-Simple-1.3/Makefile.PL. With the new CPAN (not necessarily the mirrors), go to the main page of a module, click on "browse" and select Makefile.PL. If it's done correctly, as Abigail-II points out, you should see something like the following.

use ExtUtils::MakeMaker; # See lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm for details of how to influence # the contents of the Makefile that is written. WriteMakefile( 'NAME' => 'HTML::TokeParser::Simple', 'VERSION_FROM' => 'Simple.pm', # finds $VERSION 'PREREQ_PM' => { 'HTML::Parser' => 3.25 }, ($] >= 5.005 ? (AUTHOR => 'Curtis "Ovid" Poe <poec@yahoo.com>') : ()), );

As you can see from the above, the module requires HTML::Parser. Unfortunately, that should actually read HTML::TokeParser, but I didn't discover the mistake until I responded to your post :)
