Beginning Perl: <http://learn.perl.org/library/beginning_perl/> has all the chapters in PDF format. And it's legal.
I can't browser the links to each chapter, only a blank page resulted. I'm running FedoraCore2. Please advise what is the trick. TIA
It has been a while since I used Linux, but my guess is that you don't have the ability to view PDFs in your web browser. That is okay, though. Check the downloads directory for your browser - I would guess that the PDFs you clicked on spawned a blank window but downloaded to your downloads directory. (This happens on my Mac without using a PDF viewer plugin with the browser.)
I'm pretty sure FC2 includes Xpdf in the distribution. If it is not already installed, you can get it from the installation media or <http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/>. I'm sure there are other viewers out there, too. There might even be a plugin for your browser that would allow you to view them in the browser window - though frankly, the value of this approach sometimes eludes me. The stand-alone viewers tend to give more navigational and printing control.
I can confirm that the links are not broken - they work for me.
HTH.
