Re: Error messages with OSX Perl (still learning)
Sorry, I was having a bad search day. Found the following which works. #!/usr/bin/perl use CGI::Carp qw( fatalsToBrowser ); print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; print "Test Page"; print "Hello World!" print ""; Thank You!

Re: HTML::TableExtract
Thank you Matt. This was what I was needing.

Hi Joe,
You can do that two ways. One, you could check to see if any tables
matched:
if ($te->table_states) {
...
}
Since you seem to be expecting only a single matched table in the
document, however, the table extract object behaves the same as the
single table state. So you can just check for rows:
if ($te->rows) {
...
}
Let me know if that doesn't work for you.
Cheers,
Matt

Re: HTML::TableExtract
OT for [EMAIL PROTECTED] - the answer is the same regardless of the OS
you happen to be using. This would be more appropriate for a general
Perl forum, perhaps comp.lang.perl.modules. Having said that...

Define "bombs". Do you get an error message? If so, what is it?

You're pretty much asking for errors here, by subscripting the return
value from a method that might return an empty list. You should check
it first:
my @table_rows = $te->rows();
if (@table_rows) {
my ($one, $three, $five, $ten) = @{$table_rows[0]};
}

To clarify, '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' is an account with the MySQL database. It has no relation at all to the system 'root' account on your computer. MySQL has its own set of accounts which generally have no connection to the ones on the system that the database server is running on. -- Chris Devers

Several tests failed because access was denied, for instance:
t/mysql2...Mysql connect('database=test;host=','',...) failed:
Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO) at

What else should I do to get this to run as should be?
The problem is that the self-tests are run by root, and root normally
requires a password to connect to mysql.
You have two options: The simplest is to grant [EMAIL PROTECTED] full
access to the "test" database, without requiring a password. In the
mysql shell:
mysql> grant all privileges on test.* to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.22 sec)
The second option is more complicated. You can start the CPAN shell
with 'perl -MCPAN -e shell', and use the 'look DBD::mysql' command from
there. That will download and unzip the latest module source, and open
up a sub-shell in the source directory. From there, you can run 'perl
Makefile.PL' using any of the options listed in INSTALL.html.
For example, to specify the database, user name and password to use,
you'd run 'Makefile.PL' like this:
perl Makefile.PL --testdb=test --testuser=somebody
--testpassword=blah
