Subject: System Call Assumption
Line 997 in HTML/HTMLDoc.pm " return undef if (!$filename); $pdf = `htmldoc $params --webpage $filename`; $self->_cleanup(); " There seems to be an assumption that the htmldoc script/binary is in the path and any script using this module dies if htmldoc cannot be found for this system call. Could I suggest a check in say a BEGIN block to verify this dependancy before using attempting to use it Many thanks Jason
