Hi experts

I have recently started writing a new perl program for my up and coming website, I need to be able to analyse some JSON code from an external site. After trying for over an hour I cannot see any solution.

I'm getting the code from this url: http://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/440/Name%20Tag/render/?count=2&start=2&query=

here is a link to a JSON parser making it easier to read: http://json.parser.online.fr/

I ended up with this code.

use JSON::XS;
use WWW::Mechanize;
use HTTP::Cookies;
use LWP::Simple;;
use strict;
use warnings;

sub parse {
    my $code = get("http://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/440/" . 
+$crates{$_[0]} . "/render/?count=1&start=0&query=");
    my %json = decode_json $code;
    print %json{success};
}

As you may have guessed this is not working, I cant think of any other way to do it. I get these errors: syntax error at C:\Users\Seb\perl.pl line 26, near "%jso syntax error at C:\Users\Seb\perl.pl line 28, near "}"

Any help would be really greatly appreciated, thanks in advance Seb Morris
