Most excellent monks-

I am trying to write a simple CGI program that will use the Image::Size module to display a given image’s dimensions to the user.

I have checked the archives using super-search and even though my code is basically the same as this code, I am still getting an error. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong here?

Thank you for your help,

-mox

PS: I checked, and yes all three modules are installed on my server.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use CGI;
use LWP::Simple qw(get);
use Image::Size qw(imgsize);


my $url = 'A STRING TAKEN FROM PATH_INFO';
my $img = get($url);

my ($width, $height) = imgsize(\$img);
print "$url is ${width}x${height}\n";

my $q = new CGI; # create new CGI 
   print $q->header,                   
         $q->start_html('Image measuring'),
         $q->('The size of your image is:'),
         $q->("$url is {$x}x{$y}\n"),
         $q->end_html;

UPDATE: For some reason beyond this humble monk's understanding, the cgi is now working. Thank you for your time and thoughts.
