in thread Outputting search results to .txt file

Thank you so much, stevieb, I see now how it works. I tried it with the open and close outside, also, but of course I needed print to have the right parameter.

One follow-up question: The results file now gives me the urls from the resume results, rather than the contents of the results. How do I get it to save what it on the page of each url?

And also, if you feel like it, is there a tutorial about the syntax for open and close you can point me to? The one that I read obviously showed using parentheses instead of the separate arguments.

    When I get a chance later tonight, I'll fiddle with your code and see if I can get it to do what I believe you desire it do to.

    In the meantime, here is the document you requested:

    perldoc -f open

    Cheers,

    Steve

      Thanks, Steve.
