Not sure exactly what your input/output is, but you might mind HTML::TableExtract very handy as a potential alternate approach to your problem.

And if your data is in an HTML table, you can get your array in a single line of AnyData code. AnyData uses both LWP and HTML::TableExtract under the hood: `use AnyData; my $arrayRef = adConvert( 'HTMLtable', # input is an HTML table 'http://host/path/foo.html', # input comes from a remote file 'ARRAY', # output is an Array reference '', # output not sent to file {count=>1} # HTML::TableExtract flags );` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

    'http://host/path/foo.html',  # input comes from a remote file
    'ARRAY',                      # output is an Array reference
    '',                           # output not sent to file
    {count=>1}                    # HTML::TableExtract flags
