indeed, as I pointed out in an email, I was on drugs when I did this
(well, really I just didn't read the DBI manpage very carefully...). If I
stop quoting $sql it works...

Try one of the other scrapers instead, that use a browser's core to
scrape. For your application (Firefox, Linux) I suspect
Mozilla::Mechanize might work.
http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Mozilla::Mechanize
(Oddly enough, the introduction to it is not found in the POD, but in
the README:
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Mozilla-Mechanize/README
)
That is, if you can get the module it depends upon, Gtk2::MozEmbed, to
work.

Glad I could help, but I'm asking myself why you need to
know these differences. Perl works very hard to let us deal with
integers, floats, strings and references in a unified way. In
particular, the difference of a float and an int is usually
irrelevant. If it matters to your program, you are probably
not doing something the Perl way.

I got that slightly wrong.
my $type = $_ & ~$_ ? 'str' : 'num';
takes an empty string for a number.
my $type = !length || $_ & ~$_ ? 'str' : 'num';
gets it right.

Message-Id: <1178911961.497242.180480@p77g2000hsh.googlegroups.com>
I apologize for going over the -w / warnings issue againg but didn't
find anything in the FAQ's nor on this forum that addressed the exact
problem ...
I'm running on XP and using Exceed and F-secure ssh to establish a
Unix connection to our Solaris (SunOS 4) server where I run my perl
scripts.
When I use the -w in the shebang line ...
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
the scripts run just fine but when I switch to the 'use warnings'
pragma ...
use strict;
use warnings;
use lib '/opt/somedir/local/bin';
use defaults;
use lib "$this_lib";
use lib '/home/mmouse/lib/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3';
use LWP::Simple;
use Spreadsheet::Read;
use IO::Tee;
use Cwd;
use File::stat;
I get the error ...
Command not found
I thought I had a good understanding of the both -w and warnings but
apparently I don't.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks

When switching to "use warnings;" you didn't by accident delete
or modify the rest of the shebang line (i.e. #!/usr/local/bin/perl)?
The error itself doesn't look like a Perl message, so it's either
the shell on the Solaris server or your local cmd that emits it.

Which Perl version are you using? The use warnings pragma doesn't work
with pre 5.6 versions of Perl.

One possibility to check out is that your script still has
the Windows \r\n line endings. Perl generally treats the
\r (CR, CTRL-M, \015) as just another space character, but
on the shebang line it can make a difference:
#! /usr/local/bin/perl -w\r
The shell looks for /usr/local/bin/perl, finds it, and passes -w\r
to perl as a command-line argument (and perl ignores the \r).
#! /usr/local/bin/perl\r
The shell looks for /usr/local/bin/perl\r and can't find it.
If your file transfer program has an option to transfer files
in "text" mode, use that -- it will convert the line endings.
If your file transfer program doesn't have such an option, or
if you're transferring an archive full of scripts at once,
then see if your system has a utility like "dos2unix" available.
If not, it's easy enough to write a quick Perl script to remove
the \r characters.
