in thread Write utf-8 to file?

Ok i realized that it wasn't working because it wasn't saving properly in the utf8 format.
open(PAGE, ">:utf8", "$news"); print PAGE @cont; close(PAGE);
isn't working right. ???

    It works fine, but only with perl 5.8. You should really check for errors. And I prefere my vars for the filehandle. It is good practice and you can yse them to.
    open (my $page, ">:utf8", $news) or die $!; print $page @xxxx; close $page;

    I had checked for errors, but when it didn't work it didn't print errors either so i took it out to make it as simple as possible. Yet another problem then, What about for perl 5.6.1 it is what my host has installed.
