I'm trying to get HTML::TokeParser to get the values of a Select list. Below is my select list:
<select name=market onChange="setCookie(this.name,this.selectedInd
+ex)">
<option value=Chicago>Chicago
<option value=Wisconsin>Wisconsin
<option value=Indiana>Indiana
</select>
Using this code:
my $baseSpPage = 'http://www.example.com/';
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
$mech->get("$baseSpPage");
my $html = $mech->content();
my $stream = HTML::TokeParser->new(\$html);
while ( my $token = $stream->get_token ) {
if ($token->[0] eq 'S') {
if ($token->[1] eq 'select') {
print Dumper $token;
}
}
}
My Dumper is givng:
$VAR1 = [
'S',
'select',
{
'onchange' => 'setCookie(this.name,this.selectedIndex)',
'name' => 'market'
},
[
'name',
'onchange'
],
'<select name=market onChange="setCookie(this.name,this.sele
+ctedIndex)">'
];
How do I get the select list out of here? I'd like to pack it into an array.
Ideally I'd like to have an @market array with a list of the states. I'm reading "Perl & LWP" (wish it had a lot more examples) but can't figure it out.
