Hi,

I am using perl for the first time. Can anyone please send me some links where I can 
find information and examples of Perl modules for XML programming.

thanks in advance,

  Hi all,
 
  My ISP won't install some Perl modules I want to use (Email::Valid and
  Mail::Address).
  Is there a way to install these modules in some directory I have access to
  so I'll be able to use them ?
 
 

 You didn't state whether you can login at a terminal prompt, so I will assume so, 
but this isn't necessary either. At a terminal you should be able to set PERL5LIB 
environment variable in your shell to point to whatever directory you wish the 
modules to live under, for instance HOME/lib where HOME is your home directory, then 
just run perl -MCPAN -e shell and install as normal. Then in your scripts you will 
have to add a 'use lib' line, similar to:

 use lib '/HOME/lib';

 Before you 'use' any of the modules in that directory.

 This is the easiest way, if you must install by hand then you will most likely need 
to pass a PREFIX=/path/to/lib/dir directive to perl Makefile.pl, and if you don't 
have a terminal, then you should be able to install a local version where you are 
doing your development and then just recursively upload the directory, but this is 
dangerous as you must make sure the two environments match before installing.

O'Reilly has an excellent book on this subject though it does expect some 
understanding of Perl and using modules:

http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/perlxml/

For a list of available modules, you can check here:
http://search.cpan.org/modlist/String_Language_Text_Processing/XML

Most modules on that list come with good documentation and some examples.  You may 
want to start with XML::Simple and work your way to more complex tasks.

And this should answer many questions of where to head next,
