Re: Installing a module

The code for IO::Socket::INET is included in the IO/Socket.pm file. To get the IO::Socket::INET stuff (or the IO::Socket::UNIX stuff), you just load the IO::Socket module:

use IO::Socket::INET;     # wrong!

use IO::Socket;           # right
[download]

But, I don't know why you would get this error from installing HTML::Form, which is part of libwww-perl...

I was probably not clear enough in my question. What I need is to use HTML::Form which comes with libwww-perl. I am installing Bundle::LWP with the command "perl -MCPAN -e install Bundle::LWP". Is there any module installation manual for Activeperl that I can take a look at? mak	[reply]

Is there any module installation manual for Activeperl that I can take a look at? ActiveState's installed is called PPM (Perl Package Manager). Get to a DOS prompt, type ppm then help There's also some online HTML documentation that installs along with ActiveState Perl. `Start > Programs > ActiveState ActivePerl > Documentation` will get you to an index. Then look for PPM.	[reply] [d/l]
