About: trillbox is a flexible and extendable toolkit for building dynamic Web pages. Written in Perl and based on Template::Recall, it provides "widgets" (or controls) that you can quickly integrate into your Perl Web application. trillbox widgets are designed to be independent points of control that can be easily plugged into a Web programming system, e.g. a CGI application, template-based, or included as part of an application framework. Widgets purposely have no direct knowledge of each other in order to offer the greatest flexibility (although they may be designed so that output and input can be piped between widgets).
Changes: A Treeview widget has been added. It will build nested structures of nodes, like a file system directory tree. There is a demo on the homepage.

Many project are mirrored worldwide. Mirmon helps in monitoring these mirrors. In a concise graphic format, mirmon shows each site's history of the last two weeks, making it easy to spot stale or dead mirrors. Mirmon quietly probes a subset of the sites in a given list, writes the results in the 'state' file, and generates a Web page with the results.

An multi-page HTML site index generator that easily handles virtual domains.
Clean up your Web pages with HTML TIDY
The maintenance of Tidy has now been taken over by a group of enthusiastic volunteers at Source Forge, see http://tidy.sourceforge.net.
When editing HTML it's easy to make mistakes. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a simple way to fix these mistakes automatically and tidy up sloppy editing into nicely layed out markup? Well now there is! Dave Raggett's HTML TIDY is a free utility for doing just that. It also works great on the atrociously hard to read markup generated by specialized HTML editors and conversion tools, and can help you identify where you need to pay further attention on making your pages more accessible to people with disabilities.
Tidy is able to fix up a wide range of problems and to bring to your attention things that you need to work on yourself. Each item found is listed with the line number and column so that you can see where the problem lies in your markup. Tidy won't generate a cleaned up version when there are problems that it can't be sure of how to handle. These are logged as "errors" rather than "warnings".
Dave Raggett has now passed the baton for maintaining Tidy to a group of volunteers working together as part of the open source community at Source Forge. The source code continues to be available under an open source license, and you are encouraged to pass on bug reports and enhancement requests at http://tidy.sourceforge.net.
If you find HTML Tidy useful and you would like to say thanks, then please send me a (paper) postcard or other souvenir from the area in which you live along with a few words on what you are using Tidy for. It will be fun to map out where Tidy users are to be found! My postal address is given at the end of this file.
The W3C public email list devoted to HTML Tidy is: <[email protected]>. To subscribe send an email to [email protected] with the word subscribe in the subject line (include the word unsubscribe if you want to unsubscribe). The archive for this list is accessible online. If you would like to contact the developers, or you just want to submit an enhancement request or a bug report, please visit http://tidy.sourceforge.net.
Tidy can now perform wonders on HTML saved from Microsoft Word 2000! Word bulks out HTML files with stuff for round-tripping presentation between HTML and Word. If you are more concerned about using HTML on the Web, check out Tidy's "Word-2000" config option! Of course Tidy does a good job on Word'97 files as well!
Tidy features in an article by Scott Nesbitt on webreview.com, and more recently on Dave Central's Best of Linux, and as tool of the month on Unix Review by Joe Brockmeier, who writes:
"One thing I love about the UNIX philosophy is the idea that each program should do one job and do it really well. There are zillions of small tools for UNIX-type OSes that make life much easier and are hugely useful, but they don't necessarily get written about. They certainly don't receive the same kind of coverage that Apache and Sendmail receive. One of my favorites, HTML Tidy, is a tool for HTML/Web development that I think will interest a lot of folks. HTML Tidy cleans up HTML produced by WYSIWYG editors and such."Tidy is available as a downloadable binary, as source code (ANSI C), or as an online service at W3C, Info Network, HTML Help's site Valet and other sites.

This is the sintax
usage:
indexmaker [-options ...] list
where options include:
-help print out this message
-verbose verbose
-recursive directory scan recursively the directory
-match files match different files ex. *.pdf, a?.*
(require -recursive option)
-configure file default indexmaker.cfg
-output file default index.html
list:
with list you can use metacharacters and relative and absolute path name
and ftp URL like ftp://ftp.host.com/directory/file
and http URL like http://www.host.com/directory/file
example:
indexmaker *.pdf
indexmaker -c tests/test.cfg ftp://ftp.host.com/directory/file *.pdf
indexmaker -v */*.html
indexmaker -o home.htm *.gif *.tiff *.jpeg
indexmaker -m *.pdf -r my_directory *.gz
If you want to know more about this tool, you might want

Html to Xhtml Convertor is a straight-forward Perl script to convert HTML pages into XHTML pages. It can process batches of files, convert Windows/Unix/Mac line breaks, and deal with attribute minimization, quoting of attribute values, and more.
You can convert HTML tables without all the HTML tags into comma (or anything else) delimited tables which you easily can import into Excel or a database.
Navigation.pl is a Perl CGI script for generating navigation trees on your Web page. The tree content is loaded from a file on the Web server. Default file can be specified, but you can also pass a parameter to the script and specify a different config file. Thus, one instance of this script on your Web server can be used to show different trees.
mimeStrip.pl strips base64-encoded attachments and decodes and saves them in the specified folder. Because Netscape saves sent messages with attachments, this script was written to extract these attachments and reduce the size of the Sent mail folder. The attachment is replaced by a message in the stripped folder indicating where the attachment was saved.
About: Tagreader is a Perl extension module which allows you to read HTML or XML files tag by tag in a manner similar to reading text files with "while(<>)". It also includes utilities to check for broken links in Web pages, build tar archives from a number of HTML pages (including images), and to list all of the links in an HTML page.
Adobe PDF2HTML conversion page. Also check out ps2pdf.com its pretty cool. you can upload postscript files and it will convert them into PDF files for you. this is nice if you don't have access to a UNIX machine.
The web servers were monitored by a Perl script which was triggered by cron every 10 minutes. As this is a bit short for retrieving more than 100 web pages - only four timeouts would exceed this time span - the script has to use several parallel external processes to get the pages.
This is done by the fork/exec mechanism. Calling fork creates a new process which is identical to its creator. All the variables have the same value, except $pid, which becomes the returned value of the function call. In its parent process, the function call contains the process ID of the new process, while the child is given a 0 , which causes it to fork into the other if-loop branch.
There, it executes a new program via exec(). This means the process gives itself up completely as exec() replaces it with the new program. There is no turning back here, if the called program terminates, so does the child process.
This is exactly what the creator has been waiting for in the meantime, now calling 'wait' to round up his flock. Only after a futile wait call returning the value "-1" has signalled that there are no more active child processes will it start evaluating the results which can be found in the respective temporary file.
The outer if-loop makes sure there isn't more than a given maximum number of processes to avoid system overload. If the number of active child processes becomes greater than $maxfork the parent process waits until the first one has finished.
The program called via exec() - again a Perl script - executes a simple HTTP GET request for the IP address submitted as a parameter. A timeout causes the request to be aborted after three minutes and prompts an error message.
Should script execution take more than ten minutes, the existing lock file prevents the start of a new instance before the old one has been finished. Multiple execution could result in a death spiral plunging the entire system into an abyss.
Only in parts we print another loop in which the test program checks the web server gateways. The list which is read in at the beginning contains the server's and also the gateway's IP address. As alternative routing may change this address as well as the equally important hop count (the number of stations up to the gateway), this list is updated in the background.
The actual test program s output may look like this:
953550000 www.heise.de 193.100.232.131 1 1 1The first value is the elapsed time since 1.1.1970 in seconds. This value is retrieved when the program is started and does not represent the precise time of measurement. After that we have server name and address. The last three values signal with either '0' or '1' whether the server could be pinged, whether the gateway was accessible and finally whether the HTTP request was successful.
After more than four weeks, over 4 MBytes of data had been collected and had to be evaluated. This was done using - you guessed it - a little Perl script which added up and assessed the time spans between two web server status changes. Another Perl script used this output to generate an overview of uptimes and downtimes per server which a third analysis script evaluated statistically according to search criteria like operating system or web server.
#!/usr/bin/perl #... $maxfork= 20; # maximum number of procs $stime = time(); # get current time in secs since 1970 # --- check if older proc is already running ------ stat $lock; if (-e _) { $curtime = scalar localtime($stime); print STDERR "$curtime: LOCKED, skipping.\n"; exit 1; } # nope, so lock it open LOCK, ">$lock"; print LOCK "$$"; close LOCK; # get host list open IFILE, $hlist; # --- extract file info into hashes ---- while () { ($name, $ip, $gate, $hop, $url, $ping) = split " ", $_; $allhosts{$ip} = $name; $allgates{$ip} = $gate; $allhops{$ip} = $hop; $allurls{$ip} = $url; $allgates_{$gate} = $ip; # no double gates here } close IFILE; #--- test gateways --- foreach $gate ( keys %allgates_ ) { ... # use "traceroute" with fixed hop-count open TRACE, "$trace -f $hop -m $hop $host 2> /dev/null |"; ... } # --- get web-page --- $loop = 0; $forked = 0; foreach $ip (keys %allhosts) { my ($url); $url = $allurls{$ip}; if ( $forked > $maxfork) { wait; $forked--; } if ( $pid = fork ) { $forked++; # parent } elsif ( defined $pid) { # child exec("$gwww $ip $url > $tmp/$loop.o 2> $tmp/$loop.e"); } else { die "error forking!"; } $loop++; } # wait for child procs while ( wait != -1) { ; }; # now get file results $loops = $loop; for ( $loop = 0; $loop < $loops; $loop++) { open( LOG, "<$tmp/$loop.o"); ($host, $stat) = split ' ', ; $wstat{$host} = $stat; close( LOG); } # --- print all results --- foreach $ip (keys %allhosts) { if (!defined($pstat{$ip})) { $pstat{$ip} = "-"; } if (!defined($gstat{$ip})) { $gstat{$ip} = "-"; } if (!defined($wstat{$ip})) { $wstat{$ip} = "-"; } print "$stime $allhosts{$ip} $ip ", "$pstat{$ip} $gstat{$ip} $wstat{$ip}\n"; } print "#-----\n"; unlink $lock;
