in reply to Can't locate auto/HTML/TreeBuilder/disembowel.al

Well that's odd. HTML::TreeBuilder from HTML-Tree-3.18 and it base classes are pure perl modules which don't use dynaloader or even AUTOLOAD. So why would perl be looking for a .al? disembowel is defined as sub disembowel { $_[0]->guts(1) } in TreeBuilder.pm

    My version of TreeBuilder is 3.13, but it seems it is much the same as 3.18 (the sub is the same, at least).

      HTML-Tree-3.11 looks like:

      3.11
r:/Utils/perl/site/lib/HTML/TreeBuilder.pm
HTML::TreeBuilder=HASH(0x1abf008)
HTML::TreeBuilder=HASH(0x1abf008)
new_from_content: yes
stunt:            yes
disembowel:       no

      Disembowel doesn't exist in this version.

      HTML-Tree-3.18 should look like:

      3.13
r:/Utils/perl/site/lib/HTML/TreeBuilder.pm
HTML::TreeBuilder=HASH(0x1abf008)
HTML::TreeBuilder=HASH(0x1abf008)
new_from_content: yes
stunt:            yes
disembowel:       yes

        Thanks, apparently the version of TreeBuilder installed on our backend cgi servers is 3.11... I guess I should have thought of that...
