HTML::Parser->handler(event => """") by tomazos

In the POD for HTML::Parser it talks about a call as follows:

$p->handler( event => """" );

I am wondering what the quadruple double-quote is all about. Is this a typo?

No it doesn't :) That is not actual pod. The actual pod actually has
=item $p->handler( event => "" );
I'm guessing you're viewing the pod translated to html through an old version of Pod::Html?
update: or you've got an outdated version of HTML::Parser?

I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
