Mason is a powerful Perl-based web site development and delivery
engine. With Mason you can embed Perl code in your HTML and construct
pages from shared, reusable components.
Mason solves the common problems of site development: caching,
debugging, templating, simulating browser conditions, maintaining
development and production sites, and more.
Although it can be used from CGI or even stand-alone, it is optimally
designed for use with two other open source technologies: mod_perl
and Apache.

This is a collection of modules that represent, create, and extract
information from HTML syntax trees. These modules used to be part
of the libwww-perl distribution, but are now unbundled in order to
facilitate a separate development track. Bug reports and discussions
about these modules can still be sent to the <libwww@perl.org>
mailing list, or to <sburke@cpan.org>.

HTML::TableExtract is a module that simplifies the extraction of
information contained in tables within HTML documents.
Tables of note may be specified using Headers, Depth, Count, or
some combination of the three.
Changes:
- Fix for test cases that failed because of URI-1.10 now encode
space as '+' instead of '%20.
- Makefile.PL: Require URI-1.10.
HTTP::Daemon now accepts any non-space character as method name
on the request line. It used to fail on methods like "M-POST"
because it only allowed \w-chars.
- HTTP::Date now allow fractional seconds in ISO date formats.
- HTTP::Request::Common will now calculate Content-length
even if $DYNAMIC_FILE_UPLOAD is set.
Changelog:
- Fixed the various pdf_open_*() functions (Daniel)
- Fixed a bug that could cause invalid INI entries to be used under certain
circumstances (Zeev)
- Fixed a bug in the Apache module that could cause invalid INI values to
propogate to different virtual hosts, if one or more of the virtual
hosts was configured with engine=Off (Zeev)
- Fixed possible crash bugs in the session module (Sascha)
- Fixed the ODBC module to build properly with Solid 3.0 and OpenLink (Dan
Kalowsky)
- Fixed possible corruption of line number information in PHP scripts (Zeev,
Zend Engine)
- Fixed a few possible crashes in functions that use user-defined callbacks
(Zeev, Zend Engine)
- bump NEED_VERSION
Form handling has changed subtly, so be sure to read the documentation
before upgrading to this (the new behaviour follows the W3 recommendation)
with OpenSSL 0.9.5a, instead of requiring only OpenSSL 0.9.6
These patches detect the revelant version and use the additional return
values in 0.9.6 only if present.
This also unbreaks the SNMP flavor on 2.8-stable, which requires SSL
support, since our UCD-SNMP daemon has OpenSSL compiled into it
(wierd, but thats how the PHP snmp-config.m4 works)
- Add OpenSSL patches
- Add note crypt.c patch that its now in 4.0.5-dev and can be removed soon
- Add --with-openssl to the standard set of configure options
encryption algorithms.
The patches are a backport from PHP-CVS to the mcrypt m4 script, which
didn't pick up the right version of libmcrypt. I've included the
m4 patch also, since the outputted configure script patch will make no
sense to anyone who looks at it in the future.
- bump NEED_VERSION

HTML::TokeParser's get_tag() method now takes multiple
tags to match. Hopefully the documentation is also a bit clearer.
#define PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT: Should speed up things for thread
enabled versions of perl.
Quote some more entities that also happens to be perl keywords.
This avoids warnings on perl-5.004.
Unicode entities only triggered for perl-5.7.0 or higher.
- bump NEED_VERSION
- no longer need extra distfile number4.tar.gz since it has
been integrated into the main distribution
- ltconfig, mysql socket patches are in main distribution now,
so they are removed. Note that the ltconfig patch was only
applied to the 4_0_4 branch by the PHP team, so we will have
to resubmit it for the next version, unless libtool-cvs has
been updated with our information.
- Since php3/4 conflict with each other anyway, versioning is
not needed.
ok jakob@
durring the install originally. This should fix the font problems people
have been having with Java and the JVM having very tiny and unreadable
fonts. Poked and prodded by: danh@
squid-2.3.stable4-carp-assertion.patch

w3mir is a all purpose HTTP copying and mirroring tool. The main
focus of w3mir is to create and maintain a browseable copy of one,
or several, remote WWW site(s). Used to the max w3mir can retrieve
the contents of several related sites and leave the mirror browseable
via a local web server, or from a filesystem, such as directly from
a CDROM.
w3mir's goal is to be able to make useful mirrors of any reasonable
WWW site. It specifically preserves link integrity within the
mirrored documents as well as the integrety of links outside the
mirror, following redirects as needed. If you want it to. w3mir has
a powerful ``multi-scope'' mechanism enabling the user to make
mirrors of several related sites and have links between them refer
to the mirrored documents rather than the original site. w3mir has
several features directed at getting mirrors for CDROM burning and
handling of some not too often seen problems when mirroring.
w3mir supports HTML4, and has partial support for CSS, Java and
ActiveX.

squid-2.3.stable4-accel_only_access.patch
clientAccessCheck incorrectly returns ACCESS_ALLOWED for proxy requests
when configured as an HTTP accelerator only
squid-2.3.stable4-html_quoting.patch
Everywhere where Squid inserts text received from the network into a HTML
page (error pages, FTP listings, Gopher listings, ...) care must be taken
to ensure that the text is properly encoded as HTML, or a malicious user
might be able to insert script code or other HTML tags, and exploit the
web browser of any user visiting their page or clicking on that funny link
received in a email..

MHonArc is a Perl mail-to-HTML converter. MHonArc provides HTML
mail archiving with index, mail thread linking, etc; plus other
capabilities including support for MIME and powerful user customization
features.

HTML::Base is an expansion module for Perl 5 which provides
an object-oriented way to build pages of HTML. Its purpose
is to create HTML tags at the lowest level of functionality,
that is to say, it creates HTML and doesn't do much else.
Specifically, it does not provide any CGI-like services
(see the CGI modules for that!).
Currently, the module supports all of the HTML 2.0 tags,
plus some selected tags from HTML 3.0, and some Netscape-isms.

Libwww-perl is a collection of Perl modules which provides a simple
and consistent application programming interface (API) to the
World-Wide Web.
The main focus of the library is to provide classes and functions
that allow you to write WWW clients, thus libwww-perl said to be a
WWW client library. The library also contain modules that are of
more general use and even classes that help you implement simple
HTTP servers.
guess what, ok'ed by brad@ !

This is a collection of modules that parse and extract information
from HTML documents. Bug reports and discussions about these modules
can be sent to the <libwww@perl.org> mailing list. Remember to
also look at the HTML-Tree package that creates and extracts
information from HTML syntax trees.
The modules present in this collection are:
HTML::Parser - The parser base class. It receives arbitrary sized
chunks of the HTML text, recognizes markup elements, and
separates them from the plain text. As different kinds of
markup and text are recognized, the corresponding event
handlers are invoked.
HTML::Entities - Provides functions to encode and decode text
with embedded HTML >entities>.
HTML::HeadParser - A lightweight HTML::Parser subclass that
extractsinformation from the <HEAD> section of an HTML document.
HTML::LinkExtor - An HTML::Parser subclass that extracts links
from an HTML document.
HTML::TokeParser - An alternative interface to the basic parser
that does not require event driven programming. Most simple
parsing needs are probably best attacked with this module.

This package contains the URI.pm module with friends. The module
implements the URI class. Objects of this class represent Uniform
Resource Identifier (URI) references as specified in RFC 2396.
URI objects can be used to access and manipulate the various
components that make up these strings. There are also methods to
combine URIs in various ways.
The URI class replaces the URI::URL class that used to be distributed
with libwww-perl. This package contains an emulation of the old
URI::URL interface. The emulated URI::URL implements both the old
and the new interface.
--
http_load runs multiple http/https fetches in parallel, to test the
throughput of a web server. However unlike most such test clients,
it runs in a single process, so it doesn't bog down the client
machine.
You give it a file containing a list of URLs that may be fetched,
a flag specifying how to start connections (either by rate or by
number of simulated users), and a flag specifying when to quit
(either after a given number of fetches or a given elapsed time).
There are also optional flags for checksums, throttling, and progress
reports.
Do the extract and installation ourselves, as the script is not really
needed. This avoids copying the archive around several times.
Provide a better shell-wrapper.
Fix dependencies.
Fake.

These modules are supposed to be used with the Apache server together with
an embedded Perl interpreter like mod_perl. They provide support for basic
authentication and authorization as well as support for persistent
database connections via Perl's Database Independent Interface (DBI).
o AuthDBI.pm provides authentication and authorization:
- optional shared cache for passwords to minimize database load
- configurable cleanup-handler deletes outdated entries from the cache
o DBI.pm provides persistent database connections:
- connections can be established during server-startup
- configurable rollback to ensure data integrity
- configurable verification of the connections to avoid time-outs.

Tested on i386 (by Pavel), SPARC (by me). Needs testing on m68k-based
systems.

The Apache/Perl integration project brings together the full power of the
Perl programming language and the Apache HTTP server. This is achieved by
linking the Perl runtime library into the server and providing an object
oriented Perl interface to the server's C language API.
These pieces are seamlessly glued together by the `mod_perl' server
plugin, making it is possible to write Apache modules entirely in Perl.
In addition, the persistent interpreter embedded in the server avoids the
overhead of starting an external interpreter program and the additional
Perl start-up (compile) time.
- remove the SunOS binary, unfortunately Netscape has dropped support for
SunOS and this old binary has quite a few security issues. I don't see it
fit to be included in the tree anymore at any cost.
