html-parsing

Hi, Could you please give me some suggestions on how to parse HTML in Perl? BTW, Do I need download some website pages to local harddirver with some Offline Explorer Tool? If I need, Could you give me a download URL link to a good Offline Explorer Tool.

I plan to parse the keywords(including URL links) and save them to MySQL. Thanks a lot.
