I guess in the same fashion you can write a module to connect and retrieve other data as well. But wait, why not to write a script/handler that will deliver all the required data on request? Use LWP for retrieval and Storable or/and Data::Dumper for easy serialization and later restore. _______________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.stason.org/stas Perl,CGI,Apache,Linux,Web,Java,PC http://www.stason.org/stas/TULARC perl.apache.org modperl.sourcegarden.org perlmonth.com perl.org single o-> + single o-+ = singlesheaven http://www.singlesheaven.com
