=head1 DESCRIPTION
This is a simple HTML link extractor designed for the person who does
not want to deal with the intricacies of C or the
de-referencing needed to get links out of C.
You can extract all the links or some of the links (based on the HTML
tag name or attribute name). If a EBASE HREFE tag is found,
all of the relative URLs will be resolved according to that reference.
This module is simply a subclass around C, so it can
only parse what that module can handle. Invalid HTML or XHTML may
cause problems.
If you parse multiple files, the link list grows and contains the
aggregate list of links for all of the files parsed. If you want to
reset the link list between files, use the clear_links method.
=head2 Class Methods
=over
=item $extor = HTML::SimpleLinkExtor->new()
Create the link extractor object.
=item $extor = HTML::SimpleLinkExtor->new('')
=item $extor = HTML::SimpleLinkExtor->new($base)
Create the link extractor object and resolve the relative URLs
accoridng to the supplied base URL. The supplied base URL overrides
any other base URL found in the HTML.
Create the link extractor object and do not resolve relative
links.

=item HTML::SimpleLinkExtor->add_tags( TAG [, TAG ] )
C keeps an internal list of HTML tags (such as
'a' and 'img') that have URLs as values. If you run into another tag
that this module doesn't handle, please send it to me and I'll add it.
Until then you can add that tag to the internal list. This affects
the entire class, including previously created objects.

}
=item HTML::SimpleLinkExtor->add_attributes( ATTR [, ATTR] )
C keeps an internal list of HTML tag attributes
(such as 'href' and 'src') that have URLs as values. If you run into
another attribute that this module doesn't handle, please send it to
me and I'll add it. Until then you can add that attribute to the
internal list. This affects the entire class, including previously
created objects.

=head2 Object methods
=over 4
=item $extor->parse_file( $filename )
Parse the file for links. Inherited from C.
=cut
=item $extor->parse_url( $url [, $ua] )
Fetch URL and parse its content for links.

}
=item $extor->parse( $data )
Parse the HTML in C<$data>. Inherited from C.

Clear the link list. This way, you can use the same parser for
another file.

sub clear_links { $_[0]->_init_links }
=item $extor->links
Return a list of the links.
=cut
sub links

the FRAME.

scheme.

the count of the matching links.

=head1 TO DO
This module doesn't handle all of the HTML tags that might
have links. If someone wants those, I'll add them, or you
can edit %AUTO_METHODS in the source.
=head1 CREDITS

a USEMAP attribute.
