I have written a Perl script which accesses a WWW form, gets the text, does
some editing and then sends it back. I'm encountering a problem. I'm using
the latest version of Perl, 5.8.8, with the libwww and HTML::Form modules. I
keep getting the above error message "Wide character in syswrite" when my
code tries to update the page. It is in UTF8. Also, I have had some
characters mangled. I have tried extensive searches of Google about how to
solve this problem, with no luck so far. One thing I have tried is "use open
':utf8';", but it doesn't work. Can anyone here suggest some way to solve
this problem? It is very exasperating since otherwise the script is working
perfectly. Thanks.
