Image::Size problem

[WintersMystic]

below is my code. this is straight off the docs for Image::Size. and it is installed on my webhost. but i get nothing but a blank screen when i test it. any ideas why?

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);

BEGIN{
use CGI::Carp qw(carpout);
open(LOG, ">mycgi-log") or die"Cant open log: $!";
carpout(LOG);
}

use Image::Size;
($globe_x, $globe_y) = imgsize("IMAGE URL HERE");

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "$globe_x $globe_y";

how do you mean? can that be done when working on a webhost?

ok, i just tried this on my script..

use Image::Size;
($one, $two) = imgsize("url to image");

if($one eq ""){
$one = "NOPE";
}
if($two eq ""){
$two = "NOPE 2";
}

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print &quot;$one <p>$two&quot;;

and i got nope and nope2. which leads me to believe that my webhost doesnt have Image::Size properly installed. or something. all i know is they say its there and that its installed apropriately. SO, how would i go about extracting Size.pm from the Image::Size package and place it in the directory my script is at and using it from there?

any help is greatly aprecaiated.
