NAME
       HTML::FormatText::WithLinks::AndTables - Converts HTML to Text with
       tables in tact

VERSION
       Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS
	   use HTML::FormatText::WithLinks::AndTables;

	   my $text = HTML::FormatText::WithLinks::AndTables->convert($html);

       Or optionally...

	   my $conf = { # same as HTML::FormatText excepting below
	       cellpadding   => 2,  # defaults to 1
	       no_rowspacing => 1,  # bool, suppress vertical space between table rows
	   };

	   my $text = HTML::FormatText::WithLinks::AndTables->convert($html, $conf);

DESCRIPTION
       This module was inspired by HTML::FormatText::WithLinks which has
       proven to be a useful `lynx -dump` work-alike. However one frustration
       was that no other HTML converters I came across had the ability to deal
       affectively with HTML <TABLE>s.	This module can in a rudimentary sense
       do so. The aim was to provide facility to take a simple HTML based
       email template, and to also convert it to text with the <TABLE>
       structure in tact for inclusion as "multipart/alternative" content.
       Further, it will preserve both the formatting specified by the <TD>
       tag's "align" attribute, and will also preserve multiline text inside
       of a <TD> element provided it is broken using <BR/> tags.

   EXPORT
       None by default.

METHODS
   convert
EXAMPLE
       Given the HTML below ...

	   <HTML><BODY>
	   <TABLE>
	       <TR>
		   <TD ALIGN="right">Name:</TD>
		   <TD>Mr. Foo Bar</TD>
	       </TR>
	       <TR>
		   <TD ALIGN="right">Address:</TD>
		   <TD>
		       #1-276 Quux Lane,     <BR/>
		       Schenectady, NY, USA, <BR/>
		       12345
		   </TD>
	       </TR>
	       <TR>
		   <TD ALIGN="right">Email:</TD>
		   <TD><a href="mailto:foo@bar.baz">foo@bar.baz</a></TD>
	       </TR>
	   </TABLE>
	   </BODY></HTML>

       ... the (default) return value of convert() will be as follows.

	      Name:  Mr. Foo Bar

	   Address:  #1-276 Quux Lane,
		     Schenectady, NY, USA,
		     12345

	     Email:  [1]foo@bar.baz

		     1. mailto:foo@bar.baz

CAVEATS
	   * This does not handle <TH> elements whatsoever!

	   * It assumes a fixed width font for display of resulting text.

	   * It doesn't work well on nested <TABLE>s or other nested blocks within <TABLE>s.
