Have you read the pod for HTML::Parser (I know you say you did, but still, you seem to be missing something..)?

HTML::Parser "parses" html, it does not "visit" webpages, for that, you need to look into LWP like the guy above hinted (although it's true he kinda missed the q).

You can use LWP::UserAgent, or LWP::Simple, there's plenty of examples in the pod, and on this site... look'2'see...

I'm curious though, how did you get the impression that HTML::Parser would "visit" webpages?

update: oh, by the way, I don't consider the name of a module a good "title" for a post (it should say "subject" instead of title, but anyway)
