Well, that is totally broken, so don't worry.

That /s modifier is totally useless there.

out,
>remove the space between filename and .htm
If you want to remove ANY whitespace immediately preceding the .htm,
then
do:
$url =~ s/\s+\.htm/.htm/;
If you want to remove ANY whitespace in the string at all, do:
$url =~ s/\s+//g;
