The docs for MIME::Lite::HTML don't make this clear at all, and I had to look at the source to suss what was going on...

M::L::H *doesn't* inherit from MIME::Lite - it just uses it....but the good news is that it returns a MIME::Lite object when you call the parse method, so what you actually want is this...

my $mailHTML = new MIME::Lite::HTML 
    From         => 'Someone@anyplace.com',
    # etc.
;
my $MIMEmail = $mailHTML->parse('http://google.com');
$MIMEmail->attach( Type =>'text/html; etc. etc); 
$MIMEmail->send_by_smtp('smtp-server.cfl.rr.com');

Cheers,
Ben.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
