Thank you shmem, for your valuable suggestion.
1) When I tried debugging(used print statements) in my script it got terminated with Segmentaion Fault after the HTML::TagParser instance is called . So, in HTML::TagParser module, I got the segmentaion fault in its parse sub routine.
2) The output of using gdb debug is given below.
(gdb) run burst_spider.pl -s "http://technologyreview.com/aggregates.a +spx?p=1" -toolbar Starting program: /usr/bin/perl burst_spider.pl -s "http://technologyr +eview.com/aggregates.aspx?p=1" -toolbar (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread -1212090688 (LWP 12793)] (no debugging symbols found)
