in thread Can't install CPAN modules on XP

Thanks, sounds good. Just checked and the perl package manager seems to work. It can't find a module I need, though. Any idea why? It's this one: http://search.cpan.org/~kilinrax/HTML-Strip-1.06/ It doesn't show up and HTML-Strip in PPM and if I search for the author (Bowley) I only get one of his 3 modules on CPAN: HTML-SyntaxHighlighter. Does PPM only offer a limited subset of the modules on CPAN? Do I need to add some repository or another?

The HTML-Strip package is available as a ppm package for perl-5.10 at the bribes and trouchelle repositories.	[reply]

Added the repository, installed the modules, tried the script that uses them, everything seems to work fine. Thank you for the quick help, everyone!	[reply]
