Hello dear monks,

I am following a Tk tutorial, and I need to adapt the Tk commands to the Tkx package. At this point, I am learning how to use a frame widget, and I am using this syntax (copied only the part of the script that gives the error):

"my $mw = Tkx::widget->new(".");#main window

my $frm_name = $mw -> new_frame() -> g_pack(); #New Frame
my $lab = $frm_name -> new_label(-text => "Name:", -font => Arial) -> 
+g_pack();
my $ent = $frm_name -> new_entry() -> g_pack();"

[download]

The error that I get when running the script is: "Can't call method new_frame without a package or object reference..."

Did someone encountered such an issue, or has an idea about what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,

Mihai
