Traditionally when using WWW::Mechanize to dl images I first fetch the
root page:
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
$mech->get($url);

then proceed to find all images and 'get' them one by one: (forgive
the crude code)

my @links = $mech->find_all_images();
foreach my $link (@links){
my $imageurl = $link->url_abs();
$imageurl =~ m/([^\/]+)$/;
$mech->get($imageurl, ':content_file' => $1);
}

My current problem with this is that I'm trying to dl an image
generated with information from the session of the original
get($url). It's not a static *.jpg or something simple it's a black
box that displays an image relevant to the session. Meaning, when I
fetch the image (http://www.domain.com/image/ which is embedded in the
page) as shown above, it's a new request and I get a completely random
image.

7.13: What's a closure?

Closures are documented in perlref.

*Closure* is a computer science term with a precise but hard-to-explain
meaning. Usually, closures are implemented in Perl as anonymous
subroutines with lasting references to lexical variables outside their
own scopes. These lexicals magically refer to the variables that were
around when the subroutine was defined (deep binding).

Hi Guys,
After I got my indigoperl to work I want to build an application that
get data from the html textarea parse it and then return it to the
same text area (deleting the original text).
My parser returns a perl array (@output_array) which I want to print
to the html text area.
Where can I find an example on how to perfrom this ?
Thanks in advance, Moti.

Hi ,
In my software, perl is using memory that it is not releasing and the
size of the memory that it has allocated is 100MB.
Is there any API with which I can forcefully do garbage collection so
that perl is forced to release memory to OS ?

Regards
Nishant

7.7: Why do Perl operators have different precedence than C operators?

Actually, they don't. All C operators that Perl copies have the same
precedence in Perl as they do in C. The problem is with operators that C
doesn't have, especially functions that give a list context to
everything on their right, eg. print, chmod, exec, and so on. Such
functions are called "list operators" and appear as such in the
precedence table in perlop.

A common mistake is to write:

unlink $file || die "snafu";

This gets interpreted as:

unlink ($file || die "snafu");

To avoid this problem, either put in extra parentheses or use the super
low precedence "or" operator:
