Windows 10: How to run a perl script in Win 10

Greetings! This is my first TenForums post. Running win 10. I am experimenting with a new (for me) browser called Vivaldi. I successfully imported my Firefox bookmarks, but Vivaldi's import is from a standard html file, so it does not transfer Firefox keywords as nicknames, nor does it transfer separators. Someone has written a perl script to accomplish this post import. Information about the script is located here: Annotate Vivaldi Bookmarks. Following the author's suggestion, I successfully installed activeperl. I see no way to contact the author. His instructions include a usage example for Windows users. The opening lines from this example are: > set BOOKMARKS="%LOCALAPPDATA%\Vivaldi\User Data\Default\Bookmarks" > set HTML="C:\Data\WWW\Checkpoints\GJS Bookmarks 2019-07-18 1732.html" > perl -S annotate_vivaldi_bookmarks.pl -trees %HTML% %BOOKMARKS% But when I type the first line into the CMD window, I get back a message saying that "BOOKMARKS" is not a valid command. This, of course, makes sense, but I've never done this before and don't know how to proceed next. If someone here would be willing to take a look at this, I'd be most grateful. Thank you.

Perl/PhP coding assistance

So, I have been tasked with creating a Perl Script, that parses an XML document for the 5 fields of information repeated in the document in the same order. Returning those 5 items, as Columns 1, Columns 2, Columns 3, 4 and 5 of a Table. I haven't the slightest idea on how to code or where to start. Any thoughts or suggestions? Should I be working with a different scripting language than Perl? or...?

The PhP end of this, is that I need to integrate the Perl script into a website, that allows a user to browse to the xml document of there own, and returns the Table described above to the Web Page.

I have a copy of Frozen Synapse, and Sanctum on Steam for anyone who can help me get this up and running. I have hosting capability and ftp access I can give to my personal Ubuntu web server to trying to set it up.

 

long running script in email account

Hi,

The long-running script error usually occurs when there are issues with Internet Explorer.

To resolve your concern, we suggest turning off the scripting debugger in Internet Explorer 11. Please follow these steps:

• Open Internet Explorer.
• Click the Settings icon at the top-right corner, then select Internet Options.
• On the Advanced tab, uncheck Disable script debugging (Internet Explorer) and
  Disable script debugging (Other).
• Click Apply, then OK.

Once done, check if the issue will still persist.

Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.
