Re: Loop with IMDB::Film

meri kurimasu!

If you use the movie code instead of the title, all works well. so you could first lookup the code, and then perform a query based on that code. The queries are also much much faster when searching on the movie code.

And i think something's wrong with module ( IMDB::Film ). When i tried to CPAN it, it choked on some of the online tests, when it tried to receive the title of the movie "Troy"... it got an undef... like you get ;-)

hope this helps a bit..

I really appreciate all the help on this.. Im going to contiinue to work on this. My main problem is I do not have the IMDB "ID" for each movie .. actually that is what im trying to acomplish with the script. I have a list of movies and I need to search by title to retrive all the movies information. I'll keep tinkering with it and let you guys know what happends. Cody	[reply]

ok .. i found the problem with the title search. I don't know why i dident think of this. If i do a search for the movie "halfbaked" I get 1. Half Baked (1998) 2. Half-Baked Alaska (1965) 3. Half-Baked Relations (1934) so it returns an error because it dosent know what one to pick. At least as far as I can tell	[reply]
