NAME

       WWW::IndexParser - Fetch and parse the directory index from a web server

SYNOPSIS

	use WWW::IndexParser;
	my @files = WWW::IndexParser->new(url => 'http://www.example.com/dir/');
	foreach my $entry (@files) {
	  printf "%s %s
", $entry->filename,
	       scalar(localtime($entry->time)||'');
	}

DESCRIPTION

       WWW::IndexParser is a module that uses LWP to fetch a URL from a web server. It then atempts to parse this page as if it were an auto
       generated index page.  It returns an array of WWW::IndexParser::Entry objects, one per entry in the directory index that it has found. Each
       Entry has a set of methods: filename(), time(), size(), and others if supported by the autoindex generated: type() and size_units().

CONSTRUCTOR

       new ( url => $url, timeout => $seconds, proxy => $proxy_url, debug => 1	)
	   When called with a URL to examine, this method does not return an object, but an array of WWW::IndexParser::Entry obects, one per entry
	   in the directory listing that was accessed.

	   The options to this are:

	   url The complete URL of the index to fetch.

	   timeout
	       The timeout for the request to fetch data, default 10 seconds.

	   proxy
	       A proxy server URL, eg, 'http://proxy:3128/'.

	   debug
	       Decide if to print parsing debug information. Set to 0 (the default) to disable, or anything non-false to print. Recommened you use
	       a digit (ie, 1) as this may become a numeric 'level' of debug in the future.

METHODS

       All methods are private in this module. Pass only a URL to the constructor, and it does everything for you itself.

PREREQUISUTES

       This modile depends upon "LWP", "HTML::Parser", "Time::Local".

OSNAMES

       any

BUGS

       Currently only supports Apache, IIS and Tomcat style auto indexes. Send suggestions for new Auto-Indexes to support to the author (along
       with sample HTML)!
