I am trying to parse
http://www.ebay.com without success.
I view the source, and I see a lot of ?/td>. This page is unsavable.
It displays perfectly in IE, but once the source is saved/viewed, it no long
display right in IE.
When I use LYNX to view it, it is formated perfectly.
My question is how Ebay allow any brower to display the content right
without allowing viewing source or safe as? |

They can't. You've probably got character-set issues. Use LWP to retreive the
page.

I don't have a copy of Lynx, so I can't duplicate your problem, but...
Opera saves the file with images and IE displays it just fine from the saved
files.
Ebay.com (index.html) uses an external CSS stylesheet. It also uses a
sizeable number of external javascript files and 68 images to make up the
page I looked at.

That ain't true. If you have any questions on parsing HTML using
HTML::Parser, please post them here. Otherwise, this waaay off-topic.

IE doesn't simply show you the source when you hit the "view source"
button. Oh no. That would be too easy. It does all kinds of weird crap
first and then shows you some modified source code. I'm guessing that some
of that weird crap screws up some of the characters.
Look at the source code in a different browser and it displays fine.
Not that you should try to emulate any of that code. It's pants.

In Perl, try
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/HTML-Parser-3.35/Parser.pm" target="_blank">http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/HTML-Parser-3.35/Parser.pm</a>

Maybe it uses css, or needs images to provide formatting hints.

Please don't clutter Perl newsgroups with web server questions.

Have you looked at the source codes of <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.ebay.com?" target="_blank">www.ebay.com?</a>
I don't know what you mean by uses images to provide formatting hints.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: How do I parse this page? |

Please take greater, or at least better, notice of the Newsgroups
header before determining which "where" is "here".
