And does this link allow you to install the application you are looking for? https://addons.mozilla.org/En-us/firefox/addon/mozrepl/

Thank You,

Hello dear James many thanks for the answer. i just tried out this link - and yes - i t worked! i now have mozrepl installed into FireFox

And does this link allow you to install the application you are looking for? https://addons.mozilla.org/En-us/firefox/addon/mozrepl/ Thank You,

I guess that i need some Perl-Package...(s) Probaly the only thing that is left - is the Perl.-Mechanize-Package. what do you advice - to get it via Terminal (and via CPAN) or via a repository. Note: i had severl times big troubles with some interdependencies with perl ... so it is pretty important to do each step in the right way. hmmm - the question is: I have to have take care for the whole Perl package: at the moment no perl things is on the machine - note - this was a totally fresh installation. so how to get perl in the rihgt way: - a. via CPAN or via b. YAST and the opensuse repositories look forward to hear from you greetings

Forgive me, but what is your ultimate goal here? What applications are you try to load in total and to what end are you wanting them to be used for?

Thank You,

hello James

probably the mozrepl does not work with my version of Mozilla!?
and i am sure that i have messed up some things in the earlier installations

what is aimed:

i have a list of 2,500 URLs, one on each line, saved in a file. i want the script to open the file, read a line, then retrieve the website? If so, something like this:

Filename: urls.txt
------------------
Google
CNN.com - Breaking News, U.S., World, Weather, Entertainment & Video News
Breaking News & Top Stories - World News, US & Local | NBC News
news.bbc.co.uk
Bing
Yahoo!
and so on and so forth...

Then the code:

    use WWW::Mechanize::Firefox;
    my $mech = WWW::Mechanize::Firefox->new();

    open(INPUT, "urls.txt") or die "Can't open file: $!";

    while (<INPUT>) {
      chomp;
      $mech->get($_);
      my $png = $mech->content_as_png();
    }
    close(INPUT);
    exit;

i try to run this little programme on my linux box.

what has happened in the past: i have had ********** serious issues with the installation of MECHA::FireFox Hmm - i should have to work through the steps in WWW::Mechanize::Firefox::Troubleshooting! But believe me - this is pretty ********** hard to do: Especially the "Installation" section seems particularly applicable to my situation here!

n i decided to install WWW-Mechanize-Firefox-0.68.tar.gz

but i run into troubles : see the following:

Parse errors: No plan found in TAP output

,,,,,also interesting - some reports (in the past!!):

If i run the script i got fatal errors -

linux-vi17:/home/martin/bin # perl get_shots.pl Failed to connect to , problem connecting to "localhost", port 4242: connecting to the denied at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.12.3/MozRepl/Client.pm line 144

but wait - then i noticed that i also have to install the mozlRepl ....


Installed WWW-Mechanize-Firefox and got very very bad response from terminal
guess you were refering this one here:

INSTALL - search.cpan.org
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/mozrepl/

question: probably the mozrepl does not work with my version of Mozilla!?
