Thanks Ron, I am still doing something wrong here because now I can't execute form.pl sub parseHtml { # Declare variables to hold the arguments local($fileName) = @_; # Declare a variable to store the return value local($retVal); open(htmlFile, $filename) or die "Unable to open $filename: $!\n"; # If the file opened, call the parser on it $retVal = &mainHtmlParser("",0); # Close the file close(htmlFile); # Return the string parsed from the file return $retVal; P.S. Don't refer to anyone the book "Perl 5 How TO" by Stephan Asbury, Mike Glover, Ed Weiss, Jason Mathews, Selena Sol. It claims to have internet support, it doesn't have diddley. Thank You ken t. |
