    Thanks for the code. But, for the given HTML:
    my $html = <<'__HTML__'; <a href="http://www.yahoo.com" target=_blank><img src="http://us.i1.yimg.com/nw.gif" alt="Open this result in new window">ANCHOR TEXT MATCH</a> <a href="http://www.yahoo.com" target=_blank><img src="http://us.i1.yimg.com/nw.gif" alt="Two clues"><img src="http://us.i1.yimg.com/nw.gif" alt="for the price of one"></a> __HTML__
    Desired result for http://www.yahoo.com as target url is:

    http://www.yahoo.com ANCHOR TEXT MATCH

    http://www.yahoo.com IMAGE (indicating there is no anchor text but there is an <img> tag within anchor tag)

    Thanks,
