Ive been looking for a way to parse html effectively. Ive used HTML::Parser before but it doesnt parse out all the html. Ive been trying to get HTML::Strip to work. Heres what ive got so far. 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use HTML::Strip;

my $hs = HTML::Strip->new();
my @file;
open(FILE,"</home/baelnorn/yahoo.txt");
@file = <FILE>;
close(FILE);
print $hs->parse(@file);

This code just prints white space although yahoo.txt does have yahoo's source in it and @file contains that source. I tried using $file but it only got the first line. I then tried this code. 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP::Simple;
use HTML::Strip;

my $content = get("http://www.yahoo.com");
my $hs = HTML::Strip->new();
print $hs->parse($content);

but it only gets about 3/4 of the text out of yahoo. There is nothing about a size limit to the parsing on his CPAN docs, does anyone know how i should go about fixing this?

Thanks
