for example I would like to know what other methods each of these
modules encapulate. I use windows 2000 at home and have indigoperl
installed on my computer. i also have linux on a separate computer and
can easily install perl/apache on this computer.

use CGI::pretty
use HTML::TokeParser
use LWP::Simple

Then why don't you just check the documentation for those modules?

To supply "more info", we need to know what info you already have...

for example I would like to know what other methods each of these
modules encapulate.


"other" than what?

Other than the methods described in the module's documentation?

You _have_ read the module's documentation haven't you?

C:\>perldoc LWP::Simple
or
linux% perldoc LWP::Simple

So why haven't you tried those commands?

these methods want further info on others nothing in particular but
just to know the library of whats available.

Well, have you read the documentation that comes with your module(s)?
Type "perldoc HTML::TokeParser" at a command prompt and see what you
get. If that doesn't tell you what you need to know, there is always
the source.

That information should be in the documentation that came with the module.

You _have_ read the module's documentation haven't you?

(that is not a rhetorical question, I'm hoping for an actual answer to it.)

Thanks everyone thats what I was looking for (excuse me for being duh
I've just started with perl) the command "perldoc html:tokeparser".
Just hopefully to difuse any frustrations with my question for which I
apologize. I started learning perl at school and I've been using
putty/winscp361.exe to run and execute my scripts. I've also installed
indigoperl (which runs on Windows) on a second PC which allows me to
run my scripts from home just in case. I also have a third machine
running linux but not perl/apache. I did not know the above command or
any other commands I can run in order to get more info on perl and on
any modules.

So, how much money does it put in your pocket? Seems even the illeaglas can

Reading the posting guidelines would have helped.
