I want to wget several image files from a server at a time with the same format. So, I am trying to write a perl script which calls wget continuously, but with diffferent values of the variables. However, when I use a system( "$foo")call, with $foo as the string with variables, it doesn't seem to work, while if the wget command is used at the terminal, it works just fine... Could anyone throw some light on this matter?...The code is given below for reference...
#!/usr/bin/perl $single = "http://casjobs.sdss.org/ImgCutoutDR6/getjpeg.aspx? ra=18.87667&dec=-0.86083&scale=0.39612&width=400&height=400&opt=GST&query=SR(10,20)"; system( "wget $single ") After running this, I get the following error sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `(' sh: -c: line 0: `wget http://casjobs.sdss.org/ImgCutoutDR6/getjpeg.aspx?ra=18.87667&dec=-0.86083&scale=0.39612&width=400&height=400&opt=GST&query=SR(10,20) ' -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
