WWW::Search::ZDnet 2.02

WWW::Search::ZDnet is a Perl class for searching ALL of ZDnet.

SYNOPSIS

require WWW::Search; $search = new WWW::Search(ZDnet);

Class for searching ALL of ZDnet. http://xlink.zdnet.com.

ZDNet is no longer returning descriptions

Searches articles in: Anchordesk, Community, Computer Life, Computer Shopper, NetBuyer, DevHead, Family PC, Help Channel, Inter@ctive Week, Internet, MacWEEK, PC Computing, PC Magazine CD, PC Week, Products, Sm@rt Reseller, Software, Library, Yahoo Internet Life, ZDNN, ZDTV.

Note that dupe articles can appear because they are published in more than one category on ZDnet, or same Title published on different dates.

Print options:

Using $result->{source} will return category and date enclosed in brackets, example: [PC Week, 12-14-98]. use this in place of description since there is NO descriptions anymore with ZDNet.

Raw, of course, returns all the HTML of each hit.

This class exports no public interface; all interaction should be done through WWW::Search objects.
