Hi everyone,
It took me a while to even get this shareware script to run, I modified it
quite a bit. However it runs now but it pulls up a blank html document. I am
a newbie when it comes to perl programming. Is there some easy way to spot
how the program loops through the code and what could be causing it to never
reach my print statements or ignore them alltogether? Sort of like a step
through or something.

Sure. You can use the perl debugger.
To run your script through the debugger:
$ perl -d myscript.pl
To know how to use the darn thing:
$ perldoc perldebug

Claire: in case you don't know, that $ represents the Unix command prompt.
If you're using CGI.pm, entering sample input (I assume this is a CGI
script) will be easy. If you're not, it may be a pain in the butt.
Oh, and on learning to use the debugger: the most important commands
are h, b, T, s, n, x, l, c, r, and q. d, t, and - are often useful as
well.
If you use Emacs, you can run the debugger under Emacs to see the code
you're debugging in your edit window, as well as some other handy
features. I can't remember the emacs command -- M-x perldb?

When you're having trouble with a CGI program in Perl, you should first
look at the please-don't-be-offended-by-the-name Idiot's Guide to solving
such problems. It's available on CPAN.

I guess I wasn't clear. I ran the script through the debugger. It runs, no
errors, and then pulls up a blank html document instead of the one I wrote.
How can I trace where the program fails without an error? Message boxes in
perl? Step through in perl? I'm trying to correlate this with how you'd
trace this sort of error in VB.

The same way you would do it in any language. You already received
pointers to the documentation for the perl debugger which would allow
you to set breakpoints and step through the code and examine
variables and such. Or you can just add print statements to your
program at strategic places to figure out what is going on. Or you
can stare at it for a while and try to figure out what conditions
could be leading to the results you see. I use all 3 techniques.

Subject: How to get a URL with timeout
Message-Id: <941966363.565104@ham.ihug.co.nz>
I'm trying to get pages (complete text), and search for particular details from
a fairly large list of URLs (about 1000). To make the process occur within a
reasonable space of time, I wanted to include a timeout process so that if a URL
is not fetched with in x number of seconds, it proceeds to the next one.
I gather I should use the LWP::Useragent module for this, however, I was unable
to figure out how to implement the timeout feature without an example. I tried
the following, but it seems to ignore the timeout. ie when searches take longer
than 10 seconds it does not proceed to the next item. If knows what I'm doing
wrong, or where I can a working solution to this problem, it would be greatly
appreciated.
#!/usr/bin/perl5.004
use CGI;
use CGI::Carp (fatalsToBrowser);
use LWP::UserAgent;
$q = new CGI;
print $q->header;
my @urls = (
'http://www.abo.fi/library/dbs/alma/wwls/',
'http://www.amu.edu.pl/welcome.html',
'http://www.adelphi.edu/discover/library'
);
my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
$ua->timeout(10);
my $begin_time = time;
foreach my $url (@urls) {
print "testing $url... ";
my $start = time;
my $request = new HTTP::Request GET => $url;
my $response = $ua->request($request);
my $elapsed = time() - $start;
if ($response->is_success) {
print "succeeded in $elapsed sec.\n";
@page = split(/\n/,$request);
} else {
print "failed in $elapsed sec.\n";
}
}

<snip>
The timeout is passed through from LWP::UserAgent object via the underlying
LWP::Protocol::http object to the IO::Socket object that does the work - if
the timeout is not working as you would expect you might try testing a
plain IO::Socket with a timeout to see if that behaves in the same way - if
this is the case then it might be down to the ability of your system to
Timeout socket requests.

In a similar vein, I'm writing a simple web robot I'd like to extend
into a caching proxy. I'd like to be able to fetch multiple files
simultaneously. Is there a standard select() loop, like Tk's, that
works with LWP? Is there a way to interface it to my own select()
loop?
I see there are Event and EventServer modules on CPAN, which sound
similar to what I want. Has anyone used these? Are they good?

Did you check the FAQ? Hell, did you even check the subjects of the other

You want the index of the first occurrence of "c" in the array?
See perlfaq4, "How can I tell whether a list or array contains a
certain element?" The code there can be modified to return the index.

Which just builds a wrapper that includes both perl and the Perl program.
That isn't buying you much.
Perhaps Michael can explain *why* he wants to run Perl without perl.

More like reading Word documents without Word I would think... somewhat like

I must admit to not actually having tried it myself, being quite content to

They don't want to install perl, but they do want to install your programs?
Somehow, that doesn't quite make sense.
Anyhow, to run Perl programs, you need perl. Either by having perl,
or by building huge files which include perl out of every program you
write, using nonsense like perl2exe.
Your friends are better of with perl.
And don't post Jeopardy style.

I dont know what being a nerd has got to do with wanting to install Perl -
if someone wants to run one of my Perl programs they get Perl installed
or they dont run it ...

Message-Id: <null>
Administrivia:
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
| NOTE: The mail to news gateway, and thus the ability to submit articles
| through this service to the newsgroup, has been removed. I do not have
| time to individually vet each article to make sure that someone isn't
| abusing the service, and I no longer have any desire to waste my time
| dealing with the campus admins when some fool complains to them about an
| article that has come through the gateway instead of complaining
| to the source.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
