( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Im writing code for checking if a database of addresses are valid. i have the code to save the database into scalars using regex. and the submission to the web site but I'm getting some errors.
I have speculated where the code may be broken because im not getting any values to print to my addressUpdate.txt also im new to these functions so any tips you have help.

If someone could review the code to help me fix it, i would be very grateful. The senior programmer that im interning with is busy due to tax season. Thanks =)
