My new source is below. This works fine on HTML, but not so great on the JSP. I'll get to work on that part myself. Thanks to everyone!

use strict;
use HTML::TokeParser::Simple;

if($#ARGV < 0){
    die "You did not specify any files to process! : $@\n";
}

foreach my $infname (@ARGV)
{
    my $outfname = $infname.".txt";
    
    my $inputtxt = HTML::TokeParser::Simple->new($infname);
    my $outputtxt = "";

    #this section removes the code   
    while(my $token = $inputtxt->get_token){
        next unless $token->is_text;
        $outputtxt.= $token->as_is;
    }
    
    #this section removes whitespace
    $outputtxt =~ s/&nbsp;/ /g;  #HTML special space char
    $outputtxt =~ s/\s\s\s//mg;  #tabs (mostly) and newlines
    
    open (OUTPUT, ">>$outfname") or die "$outfname could not be opened
+.: $@ *_* $!\n";
 
    print OUTPUT $outputtxt;

    close $infname;
    close $outfname;
}

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.
