I’m time trialling python and ruby parser right now, so I’m going to
spew you a list of links for:
html-parser-2
htree
ymHTML module
htmltools: requires patched html-parser (gem)
rubyful soup:
WWW::Mechanize # built on htmltools, xmltree,
htmltokenizer: handles mismatched tags (gem)
REXML: Tree & stream parsing
(Yeah, that’s a lot of libs)
Here’s the spew:
