Hi Charu.
You aren't going wrong anywhere, except that there is no 'Server'
header. So your program correctly prints nothing (I presume?).
Look at this instead. And 'use warnings' unless you've a good
reason not to.
HTH,
Rob
use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP;
my $browser = new LWP::UserAgent;
my $response = $browser->get('http://www.yahoo.com');
print $response->header('Title'), "\n";
OUTPUT
Yahoo!
