Hi, I want to write a perl script which can access google currency API and parse the JSON response to get the exchange rates. eg. http://www.google.com/ig/calculator?hl=en&q=1GBP=?USD The resonse is JSON object like {lhs: "1 British pound",rhs: "1.6224 U.S. dollars",error: "",icc: true} so, the programme should be able to call the url and parse the object. Any views would be appreciated
