Re: File open problem with "GLOB"

...and once you've got all your filehandle problems sorted out, you'll notice that it still doesn't work, because you've got

$te->parse_file($input);
[download]

which is for files/filehandles. You just want

$te->parse($input);
[download]

because you're working on a string.

Nobody says perl looks like line-noise any more
kids today don't know what line-noise IS ...

I presume that's what `Unsuccessful open on filename containing newline at C:/Perl/lib/HTML/P +arser.pm line 95. at C:/Perl/lib/HTML/Parser.pm line 95 HTML::Parser::parse_file('HTML::TableExtract=HASH(0x26dff64)', + '<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"...') +called at cruise_ships2.pl line 59 main::(cruise_ships2.pl:62): my ($ts,$row);` [download] was trying to tell me...
