This module is similar to while(<>) but instead of reading lines it reads tags or tags and text. To install run: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install The subdirectory bin contains 3 applications of Tagreader: blck -- check for broken relative links in html pages llnk -- list links in html files xlnk -- expand links on directories httpcheck -- check if a particular web-pages exists httpcheck does not directyl use the Tagreader module but may be used as post processor for blck If you are interessted in a link checker to check links only via the web-server then this is not the right program for you. Other programs like e.g curl (http://curl.haxx.nu/ or http://curl.haxx.se/) can be used if you want to check your web-pages only remotely via a web server. curl comes with a dead link checker called checklinks.pl. Note the primary desing goal of Tagreader is to provide a fast way of reading html file. These will normally be install to /usr/bin/ ------------------------------------ Author: guido(at)linuxfocus.org Homepage: http://linuxfocus.org/~guido/ Copyright: GPL Installation requirements: Perl 5 and a c-compiler (e.g gcc) ------------------------------------
