NAME

HTML::TreeBuilder::Select - Traverse a HTML tree using CSS selectors

VERSION

Version 0.111

SYNOPSIS

  my $tree = new HTML::TreeBuilder::Select

  my @entries = $tree->select("div.main div.entry");
@elements = $tree->select(QUERY)

Search the tree for elements matching the QUERY, which should be a CSS selector.

$tree->dump_HTML()

Returns a string representation of the tree in (possibly invalid) HTML format. This method will preserve any text outside of the root-level elements and NOT automatically wrap the content in <html><head></head><body> ... </body></html>.

my $element = $tree->container()

A convenience method that will return either the containing element of the tree, or a simple div container containing the root-level elements. This is very similar to the guts method, but container will also remember whether the tree had a containing root element or not.

$tree->delete()

Same as HTML::TreeBuilder::delete
