for web content analysis: Perl or other case?

5 New Member
For a project I need to analysis of web content. So I should get a web page as a input and then decompose information and other objects. Every object may have special processing after decomposition. I have doubt which language is more suitable for this situation. Do you think python is a good option or recommend Perl or other languages? I have to mention that I have C++ programming experience and a little JavaScript.

Hi,
Have a look at the Perl module: WWW::Mechanize

perl is a good choice. Is it the best? I don't know, but judging by what you said perl can do the job.

So, I download the latest "stable" tar for perl (5.8.7) and try to compile it on the Solaris 8 (SPARC) box that I administrate. I try all sorts of different switches, but I can't get it to compile. I need it to be compiled with threads. Anyone have any wisdom on how best to do this? Here's a transcript of my latest attempt. It's long; you might want to skip to the bottom, where I try "make" and the fatal errors start happening.

I am building a website with identical content in four different languages. On a first visit, the search engine determines the language of the content by the IP address of the visitor. What the user sees is content in only one language at a time. He or she can then switch to another language and set this as the preferred language, but again he or she sees content in only this one other language. The question now is: How do I get search...

When I run Code analysis on my website I always get 4 errors, one from each of my Global.asax functions Application_Error,Application_Start, Session_End, Session_Start. the error is "'Function Name' appears to have no upstream public or protected callers." Is this expected? I guess it is as IIS would call these not any of my code explicitly? can I tell the code analysis tool to ignore these functions? TIA

Introduction Uploading files from a local computer to a remote web server has many useful purposes, the most obvious of which is the sharing of files. For example, you upload images to a server to share them with other people over the Internet. Perl comes ready equipped for uploading files via the CGI.pm module, which has long been a core module and allows users...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
