HTML::DOM is a Perl implementation of the HTML Document Object Model

This is an alpha release.  So far,  the level-2 core,  HTML and event
DOM interfaces have been implemented,  and some of the level-2  style
sheet interfaces.


RECENT CHANGES

See the Changes file for the long version.

0.057
-----
Bug fix:  $doc-&gt;base now returns the URL of the page if it is a  data
URL, instead of just �𤉙ata:��.

0.056
-----
Bug fix:  $doc-&gt;title no longer dies when setting the title of a docu-
ment with no head node.
Miscellaneous:  The  make_request  method of form elements  has  been
tweaked to work with Encode 2.80.  Technically,  it was working,  but,
due to changed output in Encode 2.80,  the tests started failing.  So
now the MIME encoding is skipped on a  string  consisting  solely  of
spaces and printable ASCII.  (This was easier than  having  two  sets
of tests.)

0.055
-----
Bug fixes:
�� getElementsByClassName now works correctly when class names contain
  hyphens,  instead of treating hyphens within  class  attributes  as
  boundaries.  This was based on a patch by Sean Dodger  (thank you!).
�� $doc-&gt;body  used to return a text node in some cases,  causing meth-
  ods like aLink to die.
