[Chester LUG] Happy new year and broken perl

Fri Jan 2 20:57:54 UTC 2009

Hi Everyone,

Hope everyone had a good holiday and a good new year. I'm glad to be back,
having suffered extreme internet withdrawl. (Ok so internet was there, but I
wasn't paying £8 an hour to surf the internet!!!

So I also have a little problem with my perl code. It's almost there.
Basically, there is an issue with it is not rotating through multiple pages
as it should. It seems to read the first one, and then not increment, if
that makes sense. So I post it here, in the hope that someone can help me, a
perl wannabe.

Cheers

Stu
