Hi noble monks, i got a loop which freezes after a $mechanize->get($url) if this instruction returns a connexion timeout. i'd like to bypass this, i tried an eval{expr} or next but that doesn't work. is it possible ? (i could Net::Ping each host before getting their content but it would slow my script :/) here's the code 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my($database,$hostname,$port,$user,$password) = @ARGV;
use WWW::Mechanize;
use DBI;
print"usage : xmlrpc.pl databaseName DBhostname DBportNumber DBusernam
+e DBlogin\n";
my $dsn = "DBI:mysql:database=$database;host=$hostname;port=$port";
my $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn, $user, $password) or die "can't connect t
+o database";
my $drh = DBI->install_driver("mysql") or die "can't install mysql dri
+ver";
my @databases = DBI->data_sources("mysql");
my $sth = $dbh->prepare("select url,username,password from blogs where
+ type like \"%pattern%\";")  or die ("\ncan't get rows");
   $sth->execute();
   my @row;
while (   @row = $sth->fetchrow_array ) {
    print  "@row\n";
    my $urlbase = $row[0];
    
     
                    my $pwd = $row[2];
                    my $login = $row[1];
                    my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new(cookie_jar => {}) o
+r next;
                    eval{$mech->get ($urlbase)} or next;#the bug's her
+e
                    eval{$mech->form_number(0)} or  next;
                    eval{$mech->set_fields(log=>$login,pwd=>$pwd)}or  
+next;
                    eval{$mech->submit} or next;
                    eval{$mech->form_number(0)}or next;
                    eval{$mech->tick( "enable_xmlrpc", "1" )} or next;
                    eval{$mech->submit} or next;
  }
