are you sure you construct the right path? for example: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use LWP::UserAgent; sub print_page{ my($host,$port) = @_; my $url = $host; $url .= ":$port" if($port); my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new(env_proxy => 0, keep_alive => 0, timeout => 30); my $r = $ua->request(HTTP::Request->new(GET => $url)); print $r->content if($r->is_success); print $r->code,': ',$r->status_line unless($r->is_success); print "\n"; } print_page('http://google.com'); #-- works fine print_page('http://google.com',80); #-- works fine print_page('google.com'); #-- 400: URL must be absolute print_page('google.com',80); #-- 501: Protocol not supported __END__ you are most likely seeing the last one. make sure you specify the protocol. david -- $_=q,015001450154015401570040016701570162015401440041,,*,=*|=*_,split+local$"; map{~$_&1&&{$,<<=1,[EMAIL PROTECTED]||3])=>~}}0..s~.~~g-1;*_=*#, goto=>print+eval -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
