Can anyone decipher this code (goforum)?	Can't Post

Unable to parse out forum post URL! at goforum.cgi line 882.

This is weird because, up until now, everything was working fine with Simple Machines and GoForum. I haven't changed a thing.

Line 882 says this:
if ($html !~ /([^"]+)"\>\Q$forum_subj\E/) { die("Unable to parse out forum post URL!"); }

Uhhhh.

"Oh no one knows all the trouble I've seen."

Actually, here is the small section for those who are literate with this gibberish.

### Step 3. Now the article has been posted, we get the index page and parse out the post URL.

$url = "$cfg{'yabbse'}{'forum_url'}/index.php?board=$cfg{'forum_num'}";
($head, $html) = &GetPage($url);

if ($html !~ /([^"]+)"\>\Q$forum_subj\E/) { die("Unable to parse out forum post URL!"); }
my $thread_url = $1;

# and we're done, return URL
return $thread_url;
