NAME
HTML::Quoted - extract structure of quoted HTML mail message
SYNOPSIS
use HTML::Quoted; my $html = '...'; my $struct = HTML::Quoted->extract( $html );
DESCRIPTION
Parses and extracts quotation structure out of a HTML message. Purpose and returned structures are very similar to Text::Quoted.
SUPPORTED FORMATS
Variouse MUAs use quite different approaches for quoting in mails. Some use blockquote tag and it's quite easy to parse. Some wrap text into p tags and add '>' in the beginning of the paragraphs. Things gettign messier when it's an HTML reply on plain text mail thread. If you found format that is not supported then file a bug report via rt.cpan.org with as short as possible example. Test file is even better. Test file with patch is the best. Not obviouse patches without tests suck.
METHODS
extract my $struct = HTML::Quoted->extract( $html ); Takes a string with HTML and returns array reference. Each element in the array either array or hash. For example: [ { 'raw' => 'Hi,' }, { 'raw' => '<div><br><div>On date X wrote:<br>' }, [ { 'raw' => '<blockquote>' }, { 'raw' => 'Hello,' }, { 'raw' => '<div>How are you?</div>' }, { 'raw' => '</blockquote>' } ], ... ] Hashes represent a part of the html. The following keys are meaningful at the moment: • raw - raw HTML • quoter_raw, quoter - raw and decoded (entities are converted) quoter if block is prefixed with quoting characters
