Changelog for HTML-Tree
5.903 2013-06-01
Trial Release by Christopher J. Madsen
[ENHANCEMENTS]
* $HTML::Element::default_encoding gets its default value from
$ENV{PERL_HTML_TREE_ENCODING}, so you can restore the old behavior
without modifying any code (just export PERL_HTML_TREE_ENCODING='').

5.900 2012-12-15
Trial Release by Christopher J. Madsen
[THINGS THAT MAY BREAK YOUR CODE OR TESTS]
* parse_file (and new_from_file) now try to determine the encoding
automatically when given a filename (not a filehandle). To restore
the old behavior, set the new encoding attribute to the empty string.
To restore it globally, set $HTML::Element::default_encoding = ''.
[ENHANCEMENTS]
* new_from_file & new_from_url now let you set parsing attributes
* New shortcut constructor new_from_string is like new_from_content,
but allows you to set parsing attributes
* New shortcut constructor new_from_http for constructing a tree
from the content of a HTTP::Message (or subclass like HTTP::Response)
* Setting the new self_closed_tags attribute to 1 makes TreeBuilder
handle XML-style self-closed tags (e.g. )
* New child_nodes method makes for simpler recursion
* New openw and encode_fh methods for writing a file with the
correct encoding
[DOCUMENTATION]
* new actually does take optional attributes
(It has since at least 3.18, although undocumented, and it did
not previously work with ignore_ignorable_whitespace.)
* methods & attributes added in version 4.0 or later are now marked
* don't recommend the traverse method; give recursive example (RT #48344)
[TESTS]
* Add test for self_closed_tags attribute.
* Clarify skip message in construct_tree.t (RT #81371)
