When I tried using BigInt with floating point numbers like $float, I
end up with NaN and then get errors like:

Any ideas on how to do this conversion simply? Thanks.

I am trying to print lines from an HTML page that have a certain
date(today). The following works:
lynx -dump http://www.tbri.com/News/pgPubCal.asp | grep "Sep 11"
I have tried this in two perl scripts, and nothing is returned. The date is
being parsed correctly, I believe, I was wondering if
ing your copy of CGI.pm to the most recent version.
I suspect the problem will then just disappear.

that ExtUtils::Installed->new() fails on non-existent directories?

package that is smart enough to do the necessary error validation for
all inheriting packages, instead of having a separate specialized
'set' method for each package. This is a real savings since I have a
large number of inheriting packages.
I have not been able to find a perl module that would allow this sort
of inheritance and data validation; does anyone know of one that does
this? Or can anyone suggest a better way of doing what I want?

%Attributes inherited. The 'use vars' and assignment in MyPackage is
rather verbose, and I'm wondering if there is a better or terser way
of doing that. What's the recommended way of inheriting package
global variables?

Is there a better way to do this sort of thing? Long term, I plan to
find a better module than Flakey or incorporate its compatible parts
into MyPackage to manage this problem, but I'm looking for a
short-term fix for now.

Slw!
Download ActiveState Perl and use OptiPerl www.xarka.com.
It is faster, cheaper and has all the debugging stuff built in.

If you're new to MySQL too, then I'll also recommend getting the New
Riders book "MySQL" by Paul DuBois. I have used both books
substantially and found them essential for large projects using Perl

I have to say that this is a lot more fun than counting clock cycles, which

My favorite text editor is notetab (www.notetab.com) and you happen to be
able to run perl from it.
I know it is not free but my favorite integrated tool is OptiPerl.
www.xarka.com. Good value for $US59.
I use this with ActiveState Perl and an NT Apache build.

Even if I allow Perl to magically make the += happen for me it still does
the same (wrong) thing.
Am I going mad?
