I am trying to get a mechaism that does the following.. With relative urls:
I.E: At <http://www.domain.com/sub1/sub2/sub3/page.htm> the url <../../page.htm> refers to <http://www.domain.com/page.htm> so my URL, after: --SNIP-- #Get page my $res = $ua->request(HTTP::Request->new(GET => $starting_url), sub {$link_extor->parse($_[0])}); #Note that pages are put in @links by callback function by HTML::LinkExtor # Expand all image URLs to absolute ones my $base = $res->base; @links = map { $_ = url($_, $base)->abs; } @links; --SNIP-- Looks like <current_url>../../page.htm. Like <http://www.domain.com/page1/page2/page3/../../page.htm> The code: $element =~ s|\.\./||; Will remove all the "../". I just need to trim the extra page3/ rubbish depending on the amount of ../s. Could you point me in the direction of something that will do this. Perhaps a regexp, though if you are including one, could you please provide a description of what it does for me..
