Dear Robert, Hi. Thanx for all of the hard and good work -- but I am not quite there yet. :-) Firstly, I wish there was an easier way to automatically install *all*dependent modules at once. Do you know of a way? As I went about it, I had to install, one at a time by hand: 1. google::search 2. moose 3. class::mop 4. mro::compat 5. class::c3 6. algorithm::c3 7. devel::globaldestruction 8. sub::exporter 9. data::optlist 10. params::util 11. sub::install And then finally, I hit: can't locate exported subroutine in_global_destruction via Devel::GlobalDestruction at /home/naiman/local_perl/Class/MOP.pm line 12 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /home/naiman/local_perl/Class/MOP.pm line 12. Compilation failed in require at /home/naiman/local_perl/Moose/Exporter.pm line 10. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /home/naiman/local_perl/Moose/Exporter.pm line 10. Compilation failed in require at /home/naiman/local_perl/Moose.pm line 16. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /home/naiman/local_perl/Moose.pm line 16.

Compilation failed in require at google-results.cgi line 65. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at google-results.cgi line 65. Huh? One other thing, please. How is it that you report Currently, their API looks like it will fetch you the top 28 results for your search query. when I see at http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/documentation/reference.html that the only two options are: small and large, i.e., 4 and 8 results? Thank you so much for your time. 'night, Aaron -- Aaron ("Aharon") Naiman Jerusalem College of Technology--Machon Lev naiman@math.jct.ac.il http://math.jct.ac.il/~naiman

Rebuilding the dependencies fixed the problem.

My more recent letter, on the same subject (different bug number?): Dear Rob, Thanx for getting back to me. Are you using the latest versions of each? I've never seen that bug before. Show quoted text

Okay, I spent about one complete day rebuilding all of the modules. There were many hiccups along the way ( :-( ) but eventually I got it to work. Thank you again for the suggestion. Show quoted text

I am sorry, I did not understand your answer. Are you not using their AJAX control? I clearly see in your code: "rsz" being equal to "small" (4) or "large" (8) -- so how is it that I am getting 60 (!) results (not even the 28 max you document). Thank you in advance for your explanation. One last question: I put in a for "Larry Wall" in your code: my $search = Google::Search->Web(q => "Larry Wall", ... and straight into a browser window as well. I got different results, and certainly in a different order. (I tried with enclosing quotation marks, as well as without.) Why is that?? Thanx so much for your time!

Google does a lot of things with web search, based on your search settings, browser history, and physical location. I wouldn't be surprised that you're getting different results. You'll have to address those questions to Google, though. Maybe their groups newsboard.
