Netscape::History 3.01

Netscape::History is a Perl object class for accessing Netscape history database.

SYNOPSIS

use Netscape::History;

$history = new Netscape::History();
while (defined($url = $history->next_url() ))
{
}

The Netscape::History module implements an object class for accessing the history database maintained by the Netscape web browser. The history database keeps a list of all URLs you have visited, and is used by Netscape to change the color of URLs which you have previously visited, for example.

With this module, you can get at the URLs stored in a Netscape history file, delete URLs, and add new ones. With the associated Netscape::HistoryURL module you can access the information which is associated with each URL.

Please Note: the database format for the browser history was changed with Netscape 4. Previously only the time of most recent visit was available; now you can also get at the time of your first visit, the number of visits, the title of the referenced page, and another value.
