The tool I use most for that sort of work is HTML::TreeBuilder. Which is not the question you asked, but is very likely the answer you seek. Using regexin is not, let me stress it, Is Not the way to extract information from HTML.

One of the best tools youo have to preview the HTML itself is probably the browser that you are using. Most browsers allow you to view the HTML source - for FireFox use Ctrl-U. With IE use the menu entry View|Source.

Perl is Huffman encoded by design.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
