in reply to extract data using HTML::TableExtract

Your quoting doesn't do what you mean here:
print "word: [$_]\n" foreach qw( 'Account umber' 'Fraud Transfer' +'Date' 'Balance' 'No. of Disputes After Transfer' 'Disputed Dollars After Transfer') __END__ word: ['Account] word: [umber'] word: ['Fraud] word: [Transfer'] word: ['Date'] word: ['Balance'] word: ['No.] word: [of] word: [Disputes] word: [After] word: [Transfer'] word: ['Disputed] word: [Dollars] word: [After] word: [Transfer']

perl -ple'$_=reverse' <<<ti.xittelop@oivalf

Don't fool yourself.

    So if I need to grab the data from the table how would I quote it so that it understand that the column has multiple words. the first column is "Account Number", 2nd column is "Fraud Transfer", etc.... Once again sorry if I confused anyone by using the HTML source code. I need the information thats in the Table and not the HTML source code.

      What frodo72 was trying to say is that your use of quotes and qw() does not accomplish ... never mind i am repeating frodo72. Don't use qw(), but plain old comma separated list ...

      'headers' => [( 'Account Number' , 'Fraud Transfer' , 'Date' , 'Balance' , 'No. of Disputes' , 'Disputed Dollars' )]
        Oh IC, thanks for the clarification...
