Marco: I think you are converting twice:

Here, it will convert html_text to utf-8 again because of binmode with utf-8: > print "CURRENT URL $url\n$html_text\n"; I think you can just remove the binmode line and it will work. >Why do encodings always cause so much pain? I hope this helps today's pain, at least :-). Regards, =Ed
