HTML::Parser

• HTML::Parser expects to call ->start, ->end, ->text

• It calls ->start whenever it recognizes a start tag

• ->end whenever it recognizes an end tag

• ->text for plain data

        (.........start.........)(..text..)(end)
        <a href='/top/doc1.html'>document 1</a>

• Also ->comment, ->declaration, ->process

• HTML::Parser's ->start, ->end, ->text:

        sub start { }
        sub end { }
        sub text { }
