Hypertree from HTML file

soldatenhund has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello, I've been away from Perl and programming for some time. I have to parse an html site/file and output a hypertree. Is there a module that does this specifically and/or does anyone have any suggestions or code I could adopt?? It's for a project but I already have the ok on using modules or whatever I need to. Getting it done is the main priority.

Can you explain what you mean by the word "Hypertree"? It would make answering your question easier.	[reply]

I presume he means something like the technique described by http://www.inf.ethz.ch/personal/lombardo/archives/da/node10.html and implemented in Java at http://hypertree.sourceforge.net/. Perhaps more generally known as a Hyperbolic tree. Perl is environmentally friendly - it saves trees	[reply]

That was one of my guesses. Another was that it was a tree (folding outline) of hypertext links. But why guess?	[reply]
