Re^2: How to remove html tags using HTML::Parser?

Come on, don't be shy, point him to your old HTML::Parser tutorial. If you don't, I will. Oldie, but goodie.

To the OP: reconsider HTML::TokeParser, or likely even better yet, HTML::TokeParser::Simple, as an alternative. It's a different approach, which I personally find a lot easier: you get a stream of tokens (an opening or closing tag, a piece of text), which you can read one at a time, like lines from a file, instead of a bunch of callbacks.

I had forgotten quite how old that was - last updated on 12 December 1999, I can't remember how many times I have thought about updating it in the last 5 years, maybe if I get some interest I might get around to it .... /J\	[reply]

It dropped off the net for a while but is back at http://gellyfish.co.uk/old/htexamples/ - I even used HTML::Parser once last year ;-)	[reply]
