Hey Monks! How's it hanging? I'm trying to write a spider that scans user profiles and yields specific data based on their user id numeric values. However, when I create an array with HTML:Parser and the corresponding tokens I only receive the data from the first one even though the arrays are incrementing. Any ideas? 
while ($count<=21151){
  #create output file 
    if ($append<1)
    {
    open(MYOUTFILE, ">newtest2.out");  #open for write, overwrite
    }
  else
   {
    open(MYOUTFILE, ">>newtest2.out"); #open for write, append
   }
 
  print MYOUTFILE "\n";               #write newline
  
 #url is my page
 
 $url2[$c2] = "http://www.mysite.com/index.cfm?fuseaction.showme&user=
+$count";
  
 #get the data
 
 $data2[$c2] = get($url2[$c2]) or die $!;
   
 #parse var with data
 
 $p2[$c2] = HTML::TokeParser->new(#$data2[$c2]);
 
   #get title information from main table
 
 while ($token2[$c2] = $p2[$c2]->get_tag("table")) {
 
       next unless defined($token2[$c2]->[1]{width});
 
    next unless $token2[$c2]->[1]{width} == "435";
 
  
     $p2[$c2]->get_tag("td"); $p2[$c2]->get_tag("span");$p2[$c2]->get_
+tag("span");$p2[$c2]->get_tag("\span");
 
     $title2[$c2] = $p2[$c2]->get_trimmed_text;
 
  
    $title[$c1]=$title2[$c2];
 
 $c1++;

...

$c2++
$count++;
