I am looking for all *.htm files in a directory tree using File::Find and building up an array with all files found.

Then for each file in the array I want to find the file with the same name in a target directory tree and process the files as I find them.

Iam using the following but it is not working. Where am I going wrong?.

 
use File::Find;

my @directory = ("src");
my @sourcefiles;

find(\&sourcefind, @directory);

sub sourcefind {
    open(FL, $File::Find::name);
    push @sourcefiles, $File::Find::name if -f and /\.htm*/ ; 
    close(FL);
}

foreach $srcfile (@sourcefiles) {
    find(\&targetfind, 'D:\Projects\perl\targ');
}


sub targetfind {
    open(FL, $File::Find::name);
    # process the target file
    print $_." target found\n" if -f and /$srcfile/; 
    close(FL);
}
