Re: HTTP::Request pipe through regex

So - what's your question? Does the code you have not work how you want it to - if so, what's going wrong?

I haven't used those modules recently myself, but I'm guessing that you need to fetch the page, *then* do the regexp matching and print the result. But maybe not. It's been a while.

Just from looking at it (haven't tried running it), it looks as though the code you have will try to fetch the result of running the regexp on each of your URL strings - which won't match, so you're asking it to fetch an empty list. Kinda guessing here though, really.

Best wishes,
andye

It does not work. I can get all the html to print to stdout but can't funnel it into the regex.	[reply]

That's because getprint() prints the html to stdout. it does not return the HTML. As I wrote below, you want get() for that. "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"	[reply]
