If all you want to do is grab the text you could use the code below.  If you
also need to parse it you will need to look into using a parser as the other
mentioned.

use LWP::Simple;

my $html = get('http://www.cnn.com');

# If you need to split it into lines, this should work
my @lines = split(/\n/, $html);

For example, suppose I want to capture www.cnn.com into an array
and process the text. How does one do this?

Many thanks,

Joe
