I'm not sure that I understand your question. If you are asking can Perl do an FTP transfer, the answer is definitely yes. If you are asking if it can do things like include a Perl script from a URL, I can't think of a way to do that.

Can you clairify what you are asking a bit?

ops...i'm sorry.... i should make my question clear.... sry

BTW, i'm not using the FTP transfer...meaby take a string from URL's file for the perl's use.. basically uploading a text file that required by perl...eg. "names.txt" into any web, call perl to use a string...eg."name" in the "name.txt".

You want to upload and process the file. Can be done.

[senza_nome]

Yes, it is a book. Look in the pod for CGI.pm. Lincoln Stein wrote both the module and the book.

[cool_wutever]

icic....nvm thn....i'll get the book then....(but the book store dosnt seems hv that)

[Pat Phelan]

The pod that senza_nome refered to is the Perl Online Documentation. You can certainly buy the book (which I'd recommend), but you don't need to based on the previous posting.
