I could do that, but because of the used glob() function I can't.
Because C:\Documents and Settings\ contains whitespaces which glob()
can't handle (as far as I read everywhere). It would end up with
C:\Documents all the time.
But I need the glob() here to get into the <random_number>.default
Firefox profile folder.
I did something "easier"... I rebuilt the GUI with another button which
opens a file browser. Now I can select the cookie file on my own. ;)
#!perl -w
use strict;
use warnings;
use Win32 qw(CSIDL_APPDATA);
print Win32::GetShortPathName(Win32::GetFolderPath(CSIDL_APPDATA)), "\n";
__END__
That will get what you need, and work for all versions of Win32 from
Win95 through Vista - $ENV{APPDATA} will only work from Win2K(?)
onwards.

Hmm... i will try to read me into this
Thanks for your help. :)
Looking at your original code, I'm not sure what you think the problem
is. Presumably the delay is while the file is fetched from the remote
site - you leave the GUI up, but it will be non-responsive. If you
just want to dismiss the GUI, then add
$main->Hide()
after your Win32::GUI::Dialog(); line.
Regards,
Rob.
