# The www/p5-HTML-Parser port

## p5-HTML-Parser-3.68 – modules to parse and extract information from HTML

## Description

    This is a collection of modules that parse and extract information
    from HTML documents.  Bug reports and discussions about these modules
    can be sent to the  mailing list.  Remember to
    also look at the HTML-Tree package that creates and extracts
    information from HTML syntax trees.

    The modules present in this collection are:

      HTML::Parser - The parser base class.  It receives arbitrary sized
      chunks of the HTML text, recognizes markup elements, and
      separates them from the plain text.  As different kinds of
      markup and text are recognized, the corresponding event
      handlers are invoked.

      HTML::Entities - Provides functions to encode and decode text
      with embedded HTML >entities>.

      HTML::HeadParser - A lightweight HTML::Parser subclass that
      extracts information from the  section of an HTML document.

      HTML::LinkExtor - An HTML::Parser subclass that extracts links
      from an HTML document.

      HTML::TokeParser - An alternative interface to the basic parser
      that does not require event driven programming.  Most simple
      parsing needs are probably best attacked with this module.
