    Consolidating Web Analytics Tags to Central Server

    I don't think I explained the purpose well enough. I am not going to touch any of the analytics code that Goolge or Omniture has developed outside of the paramaters that users need to conigure themselves. Below is a list of the site-level and page-level parameters for Google Analytics...

    I manage 8 different websites. Some are tagged with Google Analytics, some Omniture, some WebTrends, some DoubleClick Dart Spotlight, and some have multiple tags. I would like to centralize the configuration and management of all tags on a central server. Thus, when a vistior lands on one of...

    Net Ping Not Timing Out

    Anyone have an idea why some timeout is not working on some domain names that I Ping? There are certain DNs that are not active that take 20 seconds to timeout, even though I have it set to 1 or 2 seconds (I tried setting the timeout 2 different ways). Is it the number of Pings it is sending...

    IP/DNS Grab - More Efficent Method??

    'By "efficient" are you looking for shorter code or faster code?' FASTER! The processing time current takes days. Most of the lag comes from contacting the DN servers, so I know its gonna be long regardless. The only way I could figure that I could decrease the 'crawl' time is to contact the...

    HTTP::Headers Issue

    I want to use HTTP::Headers to pull down server-side data (see bottom of page) for the sites I am contacting with HTTP::Request GET. My 'Request' variables are returning the right values, but the my 'Headers' variables are null. I am pretty sure its something simple in my syntax, but can't...

    Server Side Environmental Variables

    Is it possible to get server-side variables for URLs that I am spidering?? I am using Net::Ping to get IP addresses, but I would also like to get other environmental data such as server details, server type (apache, etc), server operating system, and so one. Can I use Net::Ping or 'Get' to...

    Spider - Extracting Contact Information

    I was wondering if anyone has any suggestion on extracting contact information from web sites that I spider?? There is no set format for the html content, so it has to be a flexible search. Right now, all I can think of is having the spider look for "Phone", "Phone Number", "Telephone", etc...

    Pulling URL IPs?

    I have developed a spider to collect information about a predetermined set of URLs. One thing that I would like to add is the ability to record an IP address. Anyone know the code (or a site) that will allow me to get IPs from spidering homepage content. Thanks

    My program was just transferred from a shared server to a dedicated. The default timeout on the decided is 3 minutes, so when my spider comes across a URL that is not active or doesn't return code....my spider tries for exactly 3 minutes, when I need it to be 30 seconds. Here's the code...

    Perl Getstore Problem

    I've written a perl spider to do some analysis work on the web. The program I've written successful pulls the source code for 95% of the 10k+ URLS, but there are a select few that I get the 'getstore' function to work on. These web sites are anything specical at all, so I am not sure why it...

    Writing a File to a Different Directory

    Nope, I have the relative pathway traced all the way back to the C drive. C:/Websites/sitename/sitename.com/contact_us.html The only difference in it working or not is if I point it to the cgi-bin or outside the cgi-bin. C:/Websites/sitename/sitename.com/contact_us.html (Doesn't Work)...

    Writing a File to a Different Directory

    open (DATA, ">path to where you want your file to go"); -------------------------------------------- I've tried that, but unless the directory is /cgi-bin/file.txt -or- /cgi-bin/folder/file.txt ...it doesn't work. For the program to successfully write the file, the directory has to be the...

    Writing a File to a Different Directory

    This is a simple issue, but I can't seem to figure out what I am doing wrong. I build an administration page that let's my client add new Loan Officer contact information. The admin program automatically generates an updated 'contact_us.html' page. My problem is that I can only get the program...

    \n isn't functioning correctly

    I am writing data to a file using the following: open (DATA, ">>../cgi-bin/data/marketinfo.dat"); print DATA "$variable1\~$variable2 \n"; close (DATA); It worked just fine on my server, but when I uploaded it to my client's server the \n doesn't work. Rather than starting a new line for...

    Simple Yet Annoying Problem

    A variable in my program is an AE Code ($aenum) that contains both numbers and letters, which are assigned via .dat file. Example $aenum is c15, c16, c17. However, I can't get my if then to work and error when a newly input AE code is the same as an existing. If ($aenum eq $aenum2) {...
