Re^2: HTTPRequest @ Perlmonks

Maybe someone can translate the JavaScript into PerlScript?

It can probably do as nasty things as JavaScript can do, but at least one is being f**d by one's own kind.

You'd have to implement the XML Request framework, which is a major problem all its own. Let's just not download programs from random places and automatically run them, mmmkay?

The trouble with PerlScript is that browser support is limited. Very limited. In fact, looking on the ActiveState site it seems that the plugin (which was IE only) isn't available any more.	[reply]

The latest version of ActiveState Perl (ActivePerl 5.6.1.638) still contains PerlScript. I use this version and have no problem to run PerlScript in IE. CountZero "If you have four groups working on a compiler, you'll get a 4-pass compiler." - Conway's Law	[reply]
