Alright, thank you. I read the documentation...yikes. It goes way beyond the book we had (a basic book. And I added  use diagnostics, however I don't understand how it thinks I think a 'delimitter' in the middle of my HTML title, do I need to add semi-colons to the end of all of them? I'm able to get help on assignments directly, just not like...if I had asked someone to do it for me. I've never encountered a problem like this though before, it was all simple stuff.

Ugh. This is really difficult for me too. It would be so easy for me to "spill the beans". But given this is an assignment. I can only point you toward the text that supplies you with the information you need to solve your problem. I gave you some other key words to search for, that would have armed you with the answers. Let me just suggest that quoting really is the key here. As is interpolation. If you continue down the page I gave you in the "reading assignment", and read the section "Gory details of parsing quoted constructs". You should also find clues to what you've done incorrectly. While doing so, think quoting quotes. That may help you discover what you need to know.

Best wishes.

No worries! I actually got both of them working by trial and error. :) Seems like that's the one true way to fix things in programming, and of course reading. The document you linked me will be fun to read in my free time just to get the hang of Perl. Thanks a whole bunch. Now...for my foreach statement in the 2nd script, its not displaying properly the items saved in the cookie '$C_basket'. It's just a blank section. Is that correct? I was never good with the 'foreach/for/if' statements. (Shame on me, I know)
