I am using HTML::TokeParser and this is what I would like to do. Why tokeparser?
Its easiest to use HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath or XML::LibXML with tools like xpather.pl/htmltreexpather.pl which can give you paths to start with, and all the links here Re: Retrieve select information from HTML, they're examples(for tree-xpath and others)/walkthroughs/tutorials ...
#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dump qw/ dd /;
use HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath;
my $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath->new;
$tree->parse_content(<<'__HTML__');
<div id="ro">
<div id="goner">
</div>
shambo
</div>
__HTML__
my( $ro ) = $tree->findnodes( q{ //div[ @id = "ro" ] } );
$ro->detach;
$tree->eof;
$tree->delete;
undef $tree;
print "$ro\n";
print $ro->as_HTML, "\n";
$ro->findnodes( q{ //div[ @id = "goner" ] } )->shift->delete;
print $ro->as_HTML, "\n";
__END__
HTML::Element=HASH(0xd4dbc4)
<div id="ro"><div id="goner"></div> shambo </div>
<div id="ro"> shambo </div>

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
