Hi

Put perl url in a search engine like google

Get things like

http://perl-webget.sourceforge.net/mywebget.html

use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Request;

$ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
$ua->agent("my_agent/1.0");

$req = new HTTP::Request(GET =>
"http://some.url.org/foo/bar");
$res = $ua->request($req);
if ($res->is_success()) {
print $res->content();
}
