in reply to Has html-parser will be part of perl standard build

It is always possible, to write your own perl code with regular expression to parse HTML, but unless your needs are very simple this is not recommended.

If you are using Active Perl on windows then you can install HTML-Parser using the PPM client that should have been installed when you installed perl. Just type HTML-Parser into the search box, and click install, or type ppm install HTML-Parser into the command line version of PPM.
