user ncw When I was a lad (knee high to a whippersnapper) I used to write BASIC programs. So far so good. I then moved on to assembler. Then finally C when the home micro had grown large enough to run a decent compiler (some would say it still hasn't but that is another argument for a long rainy afternoon). You might say I've spent my whole career writing C programs (with a good few lashings of assembler of course) but funnily enough all the programs I seem to write now-a-days seem to be in Perl ;-) <P> You've just got to love that string handling if you've been a C hacker ;-) <i>Though does it soften your brain?</i> <P> Sorry this isn't a bio just a ramble, but who cares! <P> Module del dia [CPAN://HTML::Tree] and in particular [CPAN://HTML::Element] which works just find for XML and simple SGML. <P> Some other links for stuff I keep losing <ul> <li><a href="http://www.tinymicros.com/pm">Perl Monks Stats</a> <li>[Super Search] </ul> <P> <a href="http://www.ebb.org/cgi-bin/ungeek.cgi?geekCode=-----BEGIN+GEEK+CODE+BLOCK-----%0D%0AVersion%3A+3.1%0D%0AGCC+d%2B+s-%3A+a+C%2B%2B+UL%2B%2B%2B+P%2B%2B%2B+L%2B%2B%2B+E%2B%2B%2B+W%2B%2B+N%2B%2B+o--+K-+w---+%0D%0AO----+M-+V--+PS+PE+Y%2B+PGP%2B+t+5--+X--+R*+tv-+b%2B%2B%2B+DI+D---+%0D%0AG--+e%2B%2B+h----+r%2B%2B%2B+y%2B%2B%2B%2B+%0D%0A------END+GEEK+CODE+BLOCK------%0D%0A">Geek code</a>. <P> <b>PS</b> That's me, with my two kids - I'm the big one in the middle ;-) Apologies for the animation - I got carried away with the GIMP ;-) <P> <b>PPS</b> My (usually very out of date) home page <a href="http://www.craig-wood.com/nick">http://www.craig-wood.com/nick</a>. <PRE> -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.6.3i mQCNAir+llYAAAEEAOma/TtngrpJ+Qabj9JNL/+SMqIGcXPRwHMs9UrvvvoPpWQf 24utY1OaGiCaWvzOpGukmk3lHfzNGbn46QMFBIKlSsycuwT71adY6upwexixjZQZ Vh0dkp0PDi0w4xIY21amsI3MZ2lcGoAO9pycc3NJEe50q7/TfhG4/9vYVhqvAAUR tCZOaWNrIENyYWlnLVdvb2QgPG5jd0BheGlzLmRlbW9uLmNvLnVrPrQlTmljayBD cmFpZy1Xb29kIDxuaWNrQGNyYWlnLXdvb2QuY29tPg== =QnjI -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- </PRE> <P> <!-- location:latitude=51.14.2,longitude=-0.34.59 --> <!-- os:Linux --> <!-- email:ncw%40axis.demon.co.uk --> 2010-10-20 12:21:36 1162 359914 images/userincoming/ncw.gif 107 England 1
