Take a look at Running CPAN without Being root and you can learn how to install the modules locally. (In fact usually you can just copy the modules into your source-code directory and copy that over to the server.)

    Hi Tilly,

    Are you saying that since a module is simply a file containing related functions that I can access those functions by putting the file alonside the script that uses the functions rather than by installing it in the normal way.

    I guess that if I can do that then there are no limits to what I can do on a shared server. I will experiment.

    Thanks for the input.

    Best wishes

      Yes, I'm saying that you can do so for any pure Perl function. Not all modules are pure Perl, but many useful ones are. Certainly enough are that it is worth seeing whether you can follow that path.
