I've

I've tried isolating the "loadpod" sub_routine with a test script and
hardcoded the "$name" variable, but still don't see why it's not
working.
I'm running this on a Mac OSX (10.3.9). Any ideas on what I'm doing
wrong?
Hi Bill,
search.perl.org changed their URL structure slightly, so the module no
longer retrieves the correct page. I haven't got around to updating
the example in the module, but I do have a similar example app running
on my website that I fixed up a couple of days ago (I don't think the
code is identical but it will be close).
http://cees.crtconsulting.ca/perl/examples/podviewer/
You can view all the source right from that page as well, so maybe you
can copy that example and get it to work on your local box. When I
find some time, I will update the example in the CAP::HTMLPrototype
module. Maybe it would be smart to not depend on an external website
for the example :)
Thanks Cees!
I copied the "loadpod" sub from the app on your website and that got
the example running great. That's such a cool, handy, little app, I've
got it linked to my "Bookmarks Bar" now!
I did make one small change sort of worth noting to the "loadpod" sub.
It's really just a personal preference, but I didn't like to way it
listed modules in the autofill, so I changed this line:
push @names, format_package($package, $version, $location)
unless grep { $package !~ $_ } @options;
to this:
push @names, format_package($package, $version, $location)
if ($package =~ /^$name/);
I think this helps list the module I'm looking for a little quicker.
Kindest Regards,
