    It will not allow me to install the module because of the failed test... I do not see any errors within the compiling to suggest WHY it would not all me to install because of 1 failed test (the very last test of the HTML/Form test)

    here is the rest of the make test portion that I failed to give....
    Failed Test Stat Wstat Total Fail Failed List of Failed
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    html/form.t 103 1 0.97% 99
    Failed 1/30 test scripts, 96.67% okay. 1/759 subtests failed, 99.87% okay.
    *** Error code 29
    make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `test'
    thank you for any help you can provide

      make install doesn't care if you passed tests or not, it will always try to install the module.

      If you're using something else to install modules (cpanp/cpan/whatever), and its not letting you install a module because of failing tests, you'll need to RTFM for help.
