To add to the mess ... I have my own HTML filtering module HTML::JFilter. I considered uploading it to CPAN, but found HTML::TagFilter and wasn't sure I should do so then. The biggest difference of HTML::JFilter and these other two is that the HTML::JFilter is supposed to get the list of tags&attributes to allow as a single, easy to edit string. I need that so that the admins of our system are able to modify the filtering of different fields. (The system is used to distribute job offers to different sites, each site may allow different subset of HTML.)

I wanted to look at the code in HTML::TagFilter to see whether it would be viable to merge it with HTML::JFilter, but did not have time to do that yet.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
