Re: 'Premature end of script' errors running script as CGI

Aside from all the programing issues with this script, make sure your version of WWW::Search::Ebay is up to date. If ebay has made significant to their results page, the older versions probably won't work.

The current version was apparently updated May 18, 2005.

Update: Interestingly, in Active perl, if you install the "latest" WWW::Search::Ebay module using ppm, the module version it installs is NOT the version that shows up in the seach list. The latest version on CPAN is 2.206. The version on Active claims to be 2.17, however, after install, opening it and examining the source, it appears to be either v 1.22 (!!!) or v 2.14 depending on which version notation you believe.

And, as it turns out, this version WILL NOT retrieve any results from ebay.

Well, its looks very difficult to provide the exact WWW::Search::Ebay module to make script workable. The anither way is using eBay API calls, but to use it, its required to obtain a developer license..	[reply]
