            "content": "Disclaimer: This module is provided only for backwards compatibility with earlier versions of\nthis library. New code should *not* use this module, and should really use the HTML::Parser and\nHTML::TreeBuilder modules directly, instead.\n\nThe \"HTML::Parse\" module provides functions to parse HTML documents. There are two functions\nexported by this module:\n",

                {
                    "name": "parse_html",
                    "content": "This function is really just a synonym for $obj->parse($html) and $obj is assumed to be a\nsubclass of \"HTML::Parser\". Refer to HTML::Parser for more documentation.\n\nIf $obj is not specified, the $obj will default to an internally created new\n\"HTML::TreeBuilder\" object configured with strictcomment() turned on. That class implements\na parser that builds (and is) a HTML syntax tree with HTML::Element objects as nodes.\n\nThe return value from parsehtml() is $obj.\n"

                    "name": "parse_htmlfile",
                    "content": "Same as parsehtml(), but pulls the HTML to parse, from the named file.\n\nReturns \"undef\" if the file could not be opened, or $obj otherwise.\n\nWhen a \"HTML::TreeBuilder\" object is created, the following variables control how parsing takes\nplace:\n\n$HTML::Parse::IMPLICITTAGS\nSetting this variable to true will instruct the parser to try to deduce implicit elements\nand implicit end tags. If this variable is false you get a parse tree that just reflects the\ntext as it stands. Might be useful for quick & dirty parsing. Default is true.\n\nImplicit elements have the implicit() attribute set.\n\n$HTML::Parse::IGNOREUNKNOWN\nThis variable contols whether unknown tags should be represented as elements in the parse\ntree. Default is true.\n\n$HTML::Parse::IGNORETEXT\nDo not represent the text content of elements. This saves space if all you want is to\nexamine the structure of the document. Default is false.\n\n$HTML::Parse::WARN\nCall warn() with an appropriate message for syntax errors. Default is false.\n\nREMEMBER!\nHTML::TreeBuilder objects should be explicitly destroyed when you're finished with them. See\nHTML::TreeBuilder.\n"
