HTML::TableExtractor Matt Thompson 11-30-2004

 I'm using HTML::TableExtractor to parse a table.

i am able to parse though the tags, finding the ones i require easily
from the attributes but i am unable to find a way to get the contants
of a tag (i.e. <td> I want this info here! </td>)

The documentation for the HTML::TableExtractor module doesn't cover
this...

Is the module not designed for this? Or am i missing something
obvious...

Thanks,
Matt

From the documentation:

HTML::TableExtractor - Do stuff with the *layout* of HTML tables

Emphasis added. At the bottom of the docs:

SEE ALSO: HTML::Parser, HTML::TableContentParser

You can take it from there.
