in thread HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath and regular expressions

Well, if we can use the much simpler and better Perl way, who cares about the convoluted "official" way... :-)

As it is, it's great. Thanks a lot. The only missing thing seems to be a sentence and/or an example in the module's documentation. In the meantime, hopefully this thread will show up for the kind of searches I made without success today.

    And of course, it actuall IS documented. Not in HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath but in XML-XPathEngine

    Must be a bad day. I keep finding stuff only after posting...

    Yes, it makes sense to document it in HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath, that's the one that people are using. XML::XPathEngine is just a lower layer, users don't need to kow about it, or look for documentation there. I will add it for the next version. Thanks.
