Hi, I have an instance of HTML::TokenParser::Simple, I need to copy it, go to the next token in my copied version, then go back to my original (none incremented version). The problem is when I go to the next token in my copied version it does the same to my original verison. Any ideas? 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use HTML::TokeParser::Simple;

my $p = HTML::TokeParser::Simple->new("clean.htm");

my $token = $p->get_token;
#$token = $p->get_token;
#$token = $p->get_token;

print "1 " . $token->as_is . "\n";

my $p_blah = $p;
print "2 " . getNextToken($p_blah) . "\n";

$token = $p->get_token;

print "3 " . $token->as_is . "\n";


sub getNextToken {    
    if(my $token_blah = $_[0]->get_token){
        return $token_blah->as_is;
    } else {
        return "end";
    }
}
