in reply to Missing values when running code.

I suspect your requests were intermittently dropped, as such would account for the "random missing values."

    This is what I am taking about, is this related to the google API? Is there anything that can be done to avoid such "intermittently" drop on the requests?

      Yes, sorry: my first response wasn't too helpful. Replacing $tree = $tpp->parsehttp( GET => $url ); with the following consistently returned all cities:

      my $count = 5;
$tree = $tpp->parsehttp( GET => $url ) while !defined $tree and $count
+--;

      Using $count helps to insure the script's not forever caught in the while loop.

      Update: Modified the description and tweaked the $count routine.
