Hi everyone, i am almost ready with the MSN perl module that i was talking here a few days ago, but since it is my first program with sockets, i have a little problem, this subroutine gets the server answers of my request, usually the server answer with just one line, and this sub works just fine, but if i modify it to get more than one lines it don't do anything :( The modifications that i've tried are:
change 
my $line = <$sock>;

[download]
to
my @lines = <$sock>;
And it didn't work , and the other was 
while ( my $line = <$sock> ) { #more stuff }

[download]

With any of the 2 changes it doesn't work
Any help.
Thanx all 
sub sendCommands{

   if (@_) {


      print $sock "$_[0]\r\n"; #$sock is a socket to the server
      my $line = <$sock>;
      print "Client: $_[0]\r\nServer: $line" if $DEBUG;
      my @values = split(/ /,$line);
      return @values if ( $line )

   }

}

Dreams they just disapear into the shadows,
then they become true....
