good day dear community,
i am heading for Perl-programming. I want to learn something
Well i am currently working on a small solution: I have tried various tutorials
(examples of Mechanize - that i have found on the CPAN) not oll of them work - some of them are broken!
Now i try t o get some real-world-task!
Especially interesting for me as a PHP/Perl-beginner
what we have so far: Well the harvesting task should be no problem if i
take WWW::Mechanize - particularly for doing the form based search and selecting the individual entries.
Hmm - i guess that the algorithm would be basically 2 nested loops:
the outer loop runs the form based search,
the inner loop processes the search results.
i have approximatley 10000 [in words 10 thousands] pages to parse them
they are organized like that:
http://Www.address/5307.html
http://Www.address/5308.html
http://Www.address/5309.html
can i do it like this:
$mech->follow_link(url_regex => qr/webgrab_path=http://evs2000.*?
Id=d+$/, n => $result_nbr);
