Description :
XML::RSS::Parser is a lightweight liberal parser of RSS feeds. This parser is \"liberal\" in that it does not demand compliance of a specific RSS version and will attempt to gracefully handle tags it does not expect or understand. The parser\'s only requirements is that the file is well-formed XML and remotely resembles RSS. Roughly speaking, well formed XML with a \'channel\' element as a direct sibling or the root tag and \'item\' elements etc.
There are a number of advantages to using this module then just using a standard parser-tree combination. There are a number of different RSS formats in use today. In very subtle ways these formats are not entirely compatible from one to another. XML::RSS::Parser makes a couple assumptions to \"normalize\" the parse tree into a more consistent form. For instance, it forces \'channel\' and \'item\' into a parent-child relationship. For more detail see the SPECIAL PROCESSING NOTES manpage.
This module is leaner then the XML::RSS manpage -- the majority of code was for generating RSS files. It also provides a XPath-esque interface to the feed\'s tree.
