XML::TokeParser splits its XML input up into +"tokens," each corresponding to an XML::Parser event. + +A token is a bless'd reference to an array whose first element is an +event-type string and whose last element is the literal text of the +XML input that generated the event, with intermediate elements varying +according to the event type. + +Each token is an object of type XML::TokeParser::Token. Read +"XML::TokeParser::Token" to learn what methods are available for +inspecting the token, and retrieving data from it. |
