i am sorry marto ´for yesterday. the thing is there is no problem with getting a connection to the database. i have my $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:database=test;host=server name","User id","password"); thats ok and the connection is good. the problem is after you fetch the rows from the database how to extract further links from each link in the database it jus that after i get each row from the database, i have to run a reiterate the function for each link when read = 0 that is when the page has not been traversed to extract links and the read variable shall be set to 1 this is where i am stuck. Thanks regards ahmed.
