The others I understand, and I was being half-facetious (neglected to include the smiley). However I do wonder in general why HTTP access is not a part of the standard Perl install these days, and also why the validator is a remote service rather than a local part of the program. That seems to be both slow and insecure. I expected the validation code would have been part of the log validator, rather than delegated to a W3C service. -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@metalab.unc.edu Java I/O 2nd Edition Just Published! http://www.cafeaulait.org/books/javaio2/ http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0596527500/ref=nosim/cafeaulaitA/
