I have tried LinkExtractor, TokenParser, Mechanize, TreeBuilder modules. For below html:
a href="http://www.yahoo.com" target=_blank><img src=http://us.i1.yimg.com/nw.gif height=11 width=11 border=0 alt="Open this result in new window"> </anchor>
all of them give "Open this result in new window" as the anchor text.
Ideally I would like to see blank value or a string like "image" returned so that I know there was no anchor text but the href still matched the target url(http://www.yahoo.com in this case). Is there a way to tweak those modules to get the desired result?
Thanks,

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).
