I'm trying to clean up my regexp so that it only outputs the link to the URL I am parsing. Currently it will grab the whole line containing my query.
$counter = 0;
$textfile = "rfl.txt";

open (TEXT, "$textfile") || die "Con't Open $textfile";


@text=<TEXT>;
close(TEXT);
$glob = @text;

for($i=0; $i<$glob; $i++){
    $_ = @text[$i];
    if(/eid=/){
    $counter = 1 - $counter;
        print $_ if $counter;
    }
}
