Thanks for the reply.
Yeah, I guess so. Well and I just discovered a more specific problem. It appears that some of these free hosts use the <BASE> tag in HTML to set the browser's base URL. This is basically forcing the browser to recognize a specific URL as opposed to the actual browser...
This started as a simple security addition to my project, and has become a major road block. I haven't posted in these forums for a very long time, but at this point I think you guys are my best chance at an answer... if there is one. Without linking you guys to exactly what im doing, ill try to...

Hi Pengo and Barbell. Thanks for the help.
After the 3 rep commands, my search for libxml did come up differently:
ppm> search libxml
Searching in Active Repositories
1. libxml-perl [0.08] Perl SAX parser using nsgmls
2. libxml-perl [0.07] Perl SAX parser using nsgmls...
I was directed to use a perl module called libxml2
Can anyone direct me to where I can find a PPD for this? It sounds like a fantastic extension of the existing XML::LibXML So maybe I just need that library, but I can't seem to find that either.
I attempted:
ppm install XML-LibXML
but it did...
I've really been cranking on Perl recently, and more specifically paging back through a book I bought last year called "Spidering Hacks" from O'Reilly.
This is an incredible reference. The most intrigueing thing to me is that the authors had no quams putting 3 pages of straight perl code if...
Thanks ICRF
Nope, you hit it right on the head. Yep, I finally used Pengo's suggestion and it worked. I should send this guy who wrote the SSLeay.PPD some cash. He saved me a lot of money just now.
Pengo! Thanks man!
I put the latest build back on my machine, and then used the PPM install for Crypt::SSLeay that you posted. It worked! It installed SSLeay just fine, and I just ran my spider.pl and it worked without a hitch!
It did everything I expected, and I can't thank you enough...
So im just asking if theres anyway to do this without having to install OpenSSL. I dont mean to seem needy or greedy. Im a constant contributor and I love to help and I totally understand how this could look like im not grateful. Im looking for a specific answer, but maybe it just isn't out...
Im not resisting. Pengo was offering suggestions i've already tried weeks ago. I don't want to have to re-invent the wheel if at all possible.
Any help would be hot. Thanks for the reply, Paul. No, as of yet there is no PM install for Crypt::SSLeay ... and every time I try to do what the readme...
Hi again pengo,
There is no reason I should have to install OpenSSL on a web server running IIS 5.0. Im going to have to put Perl on a few different machines in the future, and this does not look like a simple install.
I already have SSL libraries, i mean this thing is a webserver, why should...
Thank you perluserpengo, but it seems that the first step of the install is to indicate where my openSSL installation is at. I downloaded the newest openSSL, and now its telling me that to install it I need a C compiler.
This is getting to be quite a handful. I thought my machine would already...
Thanks again for the reply.
Well PPM works fine, Ive installed plenty of modules from it. However, when I do a search for SSLeay it finds nothing.
I will try installed it by hand. I downloaded the file you pointed me to. I am running on a Win2k machine, and I do not have ready access to a C...
Thanks Missbarbell, but Crypt::SSLeay was not found when I tried to install it from PPM. If I could get that installed maybe that would help, I dont know.
You've never had to do SSL stuff, miss?
Im new to Perl and this forum, but not Tek-Tips. I appreciate any help you guys can offer here, and will be checking back often. Im trying to get Perl to login to a HTTPS site and retrieve a CSV file. I have been unsuccessful because the site requires 128bit encryption and is refusing my attempt...
What I do to get rid of the LDB file, which is what prevents deletion of the MDB, is to run a break page.
I use cold fusion so I wrote a break.cfm that just runs a query to the datasource in question. The query is something like:
select * from blahblahblah where xxxx = 0
and you will get an...
