The only place I see "getAttribute" is in this sub:

sub get_data { my($element, $attribute, $index) = @_; if ($index){$index=1;} my $nodeset = $xp->find("//yweather:$element"); my $node = $nodeset->get_node($index); return $node->getAttribute($attribute); }

The error message means that $node is undef at this point. That means that undef was returned from $nodeset->get_node($index). I see a lot of calls to this sub, but in every case, there's no $index passed. According to the code that's there, that makes $index undef also. That's what I can see without running it.

My guess is that the bit that says "if ($index){$index=1;}" should actually say "if (!$index){$index=1;}" (note the exclamation point). That's just a guess.

To really find out what's going on, I'd recommend running this under the Perl debugger. See perldebug for the gory details.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
