Re^9: Do I have a unicode problem, or is this something else?

Hi ikegami,

Thanks for the tip. Even so the install was unexpectedly hard. The cpan module didn't really support the installation so I had to switch between cpan, my linux package manager and make. In the end I did the following:

used package manager to install libxml2-dev. libxml2 was already installed.
Run perl e Makefile.PL which generated dependency errors
used cpan to install XML::NamespaceSupport
used cpan to install XML::SAX
Ran perl e Makefile.PL without errors
make, make test, make install.

Success, I've just run your code which ran very smoothly. I think your earlier comments about the bugs were correct, so overall it's going to be less maintenance to fix this now.

Have a great day

Regards

Steve

As a shortcut, if you are in a directory that contains an unpacked distribution, you can automate the hunting of dependencies by typing `cpan .` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Thanks for this. I hope I'll remember next time I need it. I find I look back over my own old posts and discover things that I've forgotten, thinking "I never knew that"! Steve	[reply]
