Hi,
I want to retrieve a webpage that includes unicode characters using the
LWP::Simple module. But how can I tell LWP::Simple which coding it should
use as I haven't found anything concerning coding in the docs.
I use the following:
--- #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use warnings; use LWP::Simple; my $file = "tmpfile"; my $url; $url = "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/efetch.fcgi?"; $url .= "db=Pubmed&retmax=500&id=15017969&retmode=xml"; getstore($url, $file); exit; ----- As it seems, the unicode characters are not correctly stored in the file. As I'm not very familiar with utf8 stuff, I'd like to ask for a hint on how to correctly store utf8-encoded webpages in a local file...!? Tom
