I am a little surprised that no one has suggested this before me.

use LWP::Simple qw($ua get head);
use HTML::TokeParser::Simple;

my $webpage = "http://some-url.com";
$ua->timeout(30);

my ($html, $parsed_html);
if (head($webpage)) {
    $html = get $webpage || return 0;
}   else { return 0; }

my $p = HTML::TokeParser::Simple->new( \$html );

  while ( my $token = $p->get_token ) {
    next unless $token->is_text;
    $parsed_html .= $token->as_is;
  }

update: Woops, guess I did not read the first post completely. I posted nearly the same code.
