Need Help??

As my current main use for Perl is retrieving and parsing HTML pages, it would be handy to have a tutorial on the LWP library.

Use the libwww-perl cookbook: `perldoc lwpcook`, or on the web at `http://velocity.activestate.com/docs/ActivePerl/site/lib/lwpcook.html`. It gives good, clear examples of everything from a simple get to https and proxies and whatnot and not.	[reply]

In addition to the already mentioned lwpcook, I'd suggest taking a look at my extensive Web Techniques Perl columns, nearly all of which use some aspect of LWP in interesting combined ways. -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker	[reply]

The links seem to have moved. lwpcook is now at http://search.cpan.org/doc/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.53_91/lwpcook.pod The activestate reference seems to be: http://www.activestate.com/ASPN/Reference/Products/ActivePerl-5.6/site/lib/lwpcook.html Claude	[reply]
