Yahoo offers something that I can use. I can send yahoo a request and yahoo will send me a xml file BUT I am getting errors because yahoo has urls with &'s in the file. I can either replace all of the & with %26 and save the file and then let the XML::Parser do the work or I can look at the Parser code and determine where it parses the file and make the change there. I am found where it parses the file in Expat.pm :: sub parse. Then it calls ParseString() but I cant find the sub ParseString.

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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
