The basic idea is to carry around the tail of the current buffer, the '<a href', in the filter context. The last handler in this chapter http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user...Output_Filters shows the technique. The OutputFilter routine in Apache2::ClickPath (on CPAN) is another example.

This is exactly the situation that Apache2::Filter::TagAware was built for. http://search.cpan.org/~aprime/Apach...er/TagAware.pm Adam |
