The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List: modid: HTML::AsText::Fix DSLIP: bdphp description: extends as_text() to render text properly userid: SYP (Станислав Пусеп) chapterid: 15 (World_Wide_Web_HTML_HTTP_CGI) communities: https://github.com/creaktive/HTML-AsText-Fix
similar: HTML::FormatText rationale: Consider the following HTML sample: <p> <span>AA/span BBB </p> <h2>CC<code>/h2</code> DDD <br> EEE HTML::Element::as_text() method stringifies it as "AAABBBCCCDDDEEE". Despite being correct, this is far from the actual renderization within a "real" browser. links(1), lynx(1) & w3m(1) break lines this way: AAABBB CCC DDD EEE This module tries to inject (via monkeypatching) the same behavior into the method "as_text" in HTML::Element. This way, one can get the expected behavior in modules that depend from HTML::Element (for instance, Web::Scraper). enteredby: SYP (Станислав Пусеп) enteredon: Thu Jan 19 17:32:10 2012 GMT The resulting entry would be: HTML::AsText:: ::Fix bdphp extends as_text() to render text properly SYP Thanks for registering, -- The PAUSE PS: The following links are only valid for module list maintainers: Registration form with editing capabilities: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=ed600000_3d6354d7e5471d5f&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_preview=1 Immediate (one click) registration: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=ed600000_3d6354d7e5471d5f&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_insertit=1 Peek at the current permissions: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?pause99_peek_perms_by=me&pause99_peek_perms_query=HTML%3A%3AAsText%3A%3AFix
