Script: Removing HTML tags and duplicate lines
Use and complete the template provided. The entire template must be completed. If you don't, your post may be deleted!
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:
You will write a script that will remove all HTML tags from an HTML document and remove any consecutive duplicate lines, and save it as a text document. The user should have the option of including the name of an html file as an argument for the script, but if none is provided, then the script should prompt the user for the file name.
Something is wrong with this script I just can't figure out what it is. It says it can't find the file yet it exists. I also have no clue how to direct the updated file to a new text document properly.
2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:
3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):
cd ~
read -p "What file would you like to clean? " html
if [ -f $html ]
then
sed 's/<[^>]*>//g' $html | uniq > syllabus.html.txt
else
echo "File does not exist."
fi
4. Complete Name of School (University), City (State), Country, Name of Professor, and Course Number (Link to Course):
Jackson Community College, Jackson MI, USA, M. Brinkman, CIS106
Note: Without school/professor/course information, you will be banned if you post here! You must complete the entire template (not just parts of it).

pod::pseudopod::html
Pod::PseudoPod::HTML(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Pod::PseudoPod::HTML(3pm)
NAME
Pod::PseudoPod::HTML -- format PseudoPod as HTML
SYNOPSIS
use Pod::PseudoPod::HTML;
my $parser = Pod::PseudoPod::HTML->new();
...
$parser->parse_file('path/to/file.pod');
DESCRIPTION
This class is a formatter that takes PseudoPod and renders it as wrapped html.
This is a subclass of Pod::PseudoPod and inherits all its methods.
METHODS
add_body_tags
$parser->add_body_tags(1);
$parser->parse_file($file);
Adds beginning and ending "<html>" and "<body>" tags to the formatted document.
add_css_tags
$parser->add_css_tags(1);
$parser->parse_file($file);
Imports a css stylesheet to the html document and adds additional css tags to url, footnote, and sidebar elements for a nicer display. If
you don't plan on writing a style.css file (or using the one provided in "examples/"), you probably don't want this option on.
