+=head1 NAME
+
+HTML::HeadParser - Parse <HEAD> section of a HTML document
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ require HTML::HeadParser;
+ $p = HTML::HeadParser->new;
+ $p->parse($text) and print "not finished";
+
+ $p->header('Title') # to access <title>....</title>
+ $p->header('Content-Base') # to access <base href="http://...">
+ $p->header('Foo') # to access <meta http-equiv="Foo" content="...">
+ $p->header('X-Meta-Author') # to access <meta name="author" content="...">
+ $p->header('X-Meta-Charset') # to access <meta charset="...">
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The C<HTML::HeadParser> is a specialized (and lightweight)
+C<HTML::Parser> that will only parse the E<lt>HEAD>...E<lt>/HEAD>
+section of an HTML document. The parse() method
+will return a FALSE value as soon as some E<lt>BODY> element or body
+text are found, and should not be called again after this.
+
+Note that the C<HTML::HeadParser> might get confused if raw undecoded
+UTF-8 is passed to the parse() method. Make sure the strings are
+properly decoded before passing them on.
+
+The C<HTML::HeadParser> keeps a reference to a header object, and the
+parser will update this header object as the various elements of the
+E<lt>HEAD> section of the HTML document are recognized. The following
+header fields are affected:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item Content-Base:
+
+The I<Content-Base> header is initialized from the E<lt>base
+href="..."> element.
+
+=item Title:
+
+The I<Title> header is initialized from the E<lt>title>...E<lt>/title>
+element.
+
+=item Isindex:
+
+The I<Isindex> header will be added if there is a E<lt>isindex>
+element in the E<lt>head>. The header value is initialized from the
+I<prompt> attribute if it is present. If no I<prompt> attribute is
+given it will have '?' as the value.
+
+=item X-Meta-Foo:
+
+All E<lt>meta> elements containing a C<name> attribute will result in
+headers using the prefix C<X-Meta-> appended with the value of the
+C<name> attribute as the name of the header, and the value of the
+C<content> attribute as the pushed header value.
+
+E<lt>meta> elements containing a C<http-equiv> attribute will result
+in headers as in above, but without the C<X-Meta-> prefix in the
+header name.
+
+E<lt>meta> elements containing a C<charset> attribute will result in
+an C<X-Meta-Charset> header, using the value of the C<charset>
+attribute as the pushed header value.
+
+The ':' character can't be represented in header field names, so
+if the meta element contains this char it's substituted with '-'
+before forming the field name.

+
+The object constructor. The optional $header argument should be a
+reference to an object that implement the header() and push_header()
+methods as defined by the C<HTTP::Headers> class. Normally it will be
+of some class that is a or delegates to the C<HTTP::Headers> class.
+
+If no $header is given C<HTML::HeadParser> will create an
+C<HTTP::Headers> object by itself (initially empty).
