    Subroutines called from other subroutines

    In an effort to get back into programming, I've decided to tackle an IRC bot in Perl. As some background info, I am using the POE::Component: :IRC module, using strict and warnings, and I'm not intending this to do anything illegal. I can assure you this is simply for my own education. I have already built one that can do some amusing little tricks, but one aspect of my current project is giving me a headache.

    I'm having some trouble...

    FML

    It seems every idea I have has already been done and turned into a module of some sort! Well, that's the beauty of code, I suppose.

    However, for the sake of learning, I'm still interested in a way to selectively pull text from a page.

    Extracting HTML link fragment

    I recently decided to start learning Perl. I usually choose something useful for my first project in any language, so I decided to write a script to give information based upon a supplied MAC address.

    Everything in the script works fine, until I try to display the MAC vendor.

    In order to do so, I supply the MAC address as a query to a website which checks it against a database. That website then displays the vendor...

    Self-bump. Google has been no help as of yet. The only thing I could think of would be to write a templating system in PHP, but I'm not quite that skilled yet and I am very stubborn about only using my own code. Here are my specs:



    I'll keep researching while I await a response....

    Force text on all pages

    I'm running a home server and have set up a few accounts for some friends of mine. I have given them each ~user (I forgot the term) public_html directories.

    One thing I want to do is to force a SSI across all of their pages without having to manually add them. For example, I want something similar to:

    "<This page hosted on _____>" or "<Server downtime from _____ to _____>"

    Using <fieldset><legend> in a <div>

    So I am hosting a site from my home server, and I would like the main page to be an area for updates about the site. I am providing these updates in a blog-style format, using this code:

    Code:
    <form><fieldset>
    <legend>December 15, 2009</legend>
    
    <p>This is an update.  Lorem ipsum, etc. etc. and so on.</p>
    
    --goatboy
    
    </fieldset></form>
    ...
