"did you install did you install Parse::RecDescent?" --Randal L. Schwartz - well i think so. my program does run from the command line. [i regret to say i'm using a pc...] my *localhost* [sambar] uses the *same* perl, including the modules i've installed as from the command line. with other modules there's no problem, but with RecDescent i get the error message, which i know, looks a lot like i have not installed it properly. as for my website, i assume i installed the module correctly on the server too. but i get an error message there also: ' can't locate object method "new" via package "Parse::RecDescent" ' if this is not a fairly common problem i would begin to suspect my own ineptitude of course. wayne
