If you know what you are looking for on a particular site. Some helpful

I've found the HTML::TableExtract to be very valuable for retrieving
info. A lot of info on a web page are stored in table format.

Hi,
Well, it has to be perl, since there is also more to it than that, but
my debugging shows, that it is the slow part.

Hey Perl Beginners,
I have a few minor problems.
I need to get the content of a website, and search a bit in it.
I'm using the package called LWP::Simple, and then i can get it, like this:
$url = "http://domain.tld/site.ext";
my $cont = get $url;
