Re: Help with my Crawler

You have a "smart quote" where Perl does not expect one. Get a decent editor and only ever use ASCII characters in your code:

print (“TCP Connection Success. \n"); # wrong

print ("TCP Connection Success. \n"); # right

Also, Perl tells you the line number and column where it found the error. What part of that information did you have problems with?

I don't know what operating you are using, and what the "text editor" is there. Depending on your operating system, there are likely many good choices. Personally, I like Padre. I also often use `vi`. Windows users also seem to like Notepad++, but I've never used it myself.	[reply] [d/l]
