Please stop cross-posting to inappropriate groups. I've tried to be nice so
far, but PHP has nothing to do with Perl and vice-versa. Also note that php
is *not* a top level usenet group, hence there will never be a
"php.general".

Well, it is full of syntax errors to begin with.
Not to mention that you are missing
use strict;
use warnings;
> $fp = @fopen("about.txt", "rb") or die("Couldn't open file");
If you want to index an array you should use square brackets.
If the @fopen("about.txt", "rb") is meant to open a file about.txt, then
maybe you meant something like
open (FH, ">about.txt");
However it is hard to tell what you are trying to accomplish because the
syntax only very vaguly resembles Perl.
> $data = fread($fp, filesize($fp));
Where is fread() defined?
Did you mean read() (unlikely) or simply <FH>?
> while(!feof($fp))
Where is feof() defined?
[rest of bogus 'code' snipped]
Well, you know, you really should get a book about learning Perl,
familiarize yourself with the basic syntax, and try some programs on the
"Hello World" level before venturing into more elaborate areas. Your program
is so hopelessly broken, I would just throw it away and start from scratch
anew.

You do realize he's asking a PHP question right? He prolly crossposted to
your perl group by accident.

| Actually the code seems to work -> I tried it on Linux and it worked
once I chmod 777 the files. Thanks for your help though. Would anyone
know how to work around the chmod issue on Windows? Seems like this
issue is windows :)
Thanks
