I'm trying to get a html utility script I found on the site to run. section of code containing unable to parse error
 
 if($content=~m|<BODY.*?>(.*?)</BODY>|si) {
 $content = $header_html . $1 . $footer_html;
 $content =~ s|%title%|$title|;
 &save_file("$fullpath",$content);
 print "Completed\n";
 } else{
 print "Couldn't parse\n";
 }

I defined $header_html and $footer_html.
Pointing to the actual html header and footer files. 
my $header_html= 'C:/My Documents/carlist/carlist_test/template/cchead
+er.html';
my $footer_html= 'C:/My Documents/carlist/carlist_test/template/ccfoot
+er.html';
