Hi,

Try this one,

Code:
my $newPage = "$simplePage";
my $str = (split("href=\"CVP-LATEST-5.3.0.",$simplePage ))[1];
my $version = substr("$str",0,2);
print "Version: <$version>\n";

I think variable $simplePage doesn't have string data so need to convert to string. Try the above code.i assume href=\"CVP-LATEST-5.3.0. wont change in future.

Cheers,
RangaSmilie
