in reply to Parsing HTML tags with regex

I know you don't want to use HTML::foo (tho' you never explain why) but in the interests of having at least one "best practices" answer listed here an HTML::TreeBuilder solution is given below:

#!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use LWP::Simple; use HTML::TreeBuilder; my $page = get ('http://pvpgnservers.ath.cx/') or die; my $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder->new; $tree->parse($page); my @trs = $tree->find_by_tag_name('tr'); my @stuff; foreach my $row (@trs) { if ($row->as_text =~ /^217\.172\.178\.113/) { @stuff = map { ref $_ ? $_->as_text : $_ } $row->content_list; last; } } print "@stuff\n";

    See also this other node in the other thread; I take a slightly different approach to the problem, but also using HTML::TreeBuilder. TIMTOWTDI, indeed.

    perl -pe '"I lo*`+$^X$\"$]!$/"=~m%(.*)%s;$_=$1;y^`+*^e v^#$&V"+@( NO CARRIER'
