HTML::Display::Common

routines common to all HTML::Display subclasses

This is the routine used to display the HTML to the user. It takes the following parameters :

  html     => SCALAR containing the HTML
  file     => SCALAR containing the filename of the file to be displayed
  base     => optional base url for the HTML, so that relative links still work
  location    (synonymous to base)

Basic usage :

  my $html = "<html><body><h1>Hello world!</h1></body></html>";
  my $browser = HTML::Display->new();
  $browser->display( html => $html );

Location parameter :

If you fetch a page from a remote site but still want to display it to the user, the "location" parameter comes in very handy :

  my $html = '<html><body><img src="/images/hp0.gif"></body></html>';
  my $browser = HTML::Display->new();
  # This will display part of the Google logo
  $browser->display( html => $html, base => 'http://www.google.com' );
