Hi all,
I am completely new to PERL and a little overwhelmed by all the documentation out there. My task: I need to search for specific parameters on a resume search site and save the resume results in a txt file. I can get the search to work correctly, but I do not know how the open, print, and close filehandle works with my while routine. I would really appreciate any assistance you can offer.
Code is below.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP::Simple;
use LWP::UserAgent;
my $agent = LWP::UserAgent->new(
agent => 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64 AppleWebKit/535.21 (KHTML, l
+ike Gecko) Chrome/19.0.1042.0 Safari/535.21');
my $url = 'http://www.beyond.com/resumes/resume-search.asp';
my $response = $agent->post( $url,
{ 'FEducationLevel' => '2110',
'FExperienceLevelMin' => '2125',
'FExperienceLevelMax' => '2127',
'FSinceDate'=> '90',
'FKeywords'=> 'administrative assistant',
'FCountryState' => 'US~GA',
'Fmetros' => '12060'} );
my $html = $response->decoded_content;
while ( $html =~ /"resumeDetailLink" href="([^"]+)"/sg )
{my $link_url = 'http://www.beyond.com' . $1;
open FH,">>results.txt";
print $link_url . "\n";
close FH, "results.txt";
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
