Punto has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi.

I'm writing this cgi script, and I'm putting 'class' and 'id' attributes on all HTML tags so we can then use Style Sheets to modify the style of the HTML (don't like the designers touching my code. :)
What I need to do now is generate a list of all the tags, clases and ids available on the HTML code, to use on the css files.

So, is there a simple HTML parser that I can use to do this? I don't need any complicated 'XML' thing.

Thanks.

    There's HTML::Parser, which will tree-ify your HTML document, which you can transverse to find what you need.
