The   "Comment." key stuck out, so a better idea might be to use the @id attribute as key
my $key = shift(@nodes)->findvalue('*[@id]/@id');

    Thank you very much!
    Just tried the both approaches, it works even if the last h2-tag is missing ( appears in about 10 pages from > 400, for which I used the following workaround:
    my @solution_2 = $content->findvalues( './h2[4]/preceding-sibling::*' +); unless ( @solution_2 ) { @solution_2 = $content->findvalues( '//hr/preceding-sibling::*' ); }
    ... with substr as before ...
    Fortunately they have only one hr-tag in the page :-)
    With your approach it is not necessary anymore.
    BTW the content after the <h2>[4] is not important.
    Thanks again!
