Can you post the actual code that's trying to do the file open/writes?

(quick note: LWP::Simple::get_store is handy function too)

I no longer have the exact code, but it was along the lines of:

use IO::File;

my $file = IO::File->new(">carddb.txt") or die $!;

And further down, where it says print STDERR $result; it read $file->print($result) or die $!;.

Ultimately, there was also a $file->close; at the end of the file too.

And thank you for the reminder about LWP::Simple::get_store, but I didn't actually want to keep the whole page.
