Sorry, I realized that I sent my example without enough details but you
replied before I could submit an example.

I was running a test on an excerpt of an HTML file (this is not valid
HTML by itself, but I did that to isolate the problem):
<!-- test
--> <a href="fdasfafdas"></a>
Here's a sample script:
use strict;
require HTML::Parser;
my $p = HTML::Parser->new;
$p->handler(@EVENT@ => \&text, 'text');
$p->parse_file('/tmp/foo.html');
sub text() {
my ($t) = @_;
print $t . "\n";
}
With @EVENT@ being 'comment':
[hugo:pts/2] larve:~> perl -w test.pl
<!-- test
-->
[hugo:pts/2] larve:~>
With @EVENT@ being 'default':
[hugo:pts/2] larve:~> perl -w test.pl
[hugo:pts/2] larve:~>
