These errors are a result of a failed 'open'. The script does not check for success.
The scripts I posted recently does check, however I am rather sure that
the value I return is not of the correct type (any perlovers out there?).

As for why the open fails, I do not know. I am waiting for a failure
to see the message. Maybe an invalid file name is generated when
a malformed document is fetched?

BTW, posting the script inline in html makes it impossible to extract.
