My code is as follows:- 
@logfiles=("access.html","access_log","log.txt","log.html");
@logfolders=("accesslogdir","logs");
@cgifolders=("cgi","cgi-bin","scripts");
@cgifiles=("script.pl","test.pl","tools.pl");
$baseurl="http://www.testurl.com";

foreach $folder(@logfolders) {
    foreach $file(@logfiles) {
    my($url)=join '',$baseurl,$folder,"/",$file;
    print "Compiled URL - $url\n";
}

I actually want to be able to do all variations of the above including all folders and all files in all the four arrays. but i also want to hit urls that are just off the main bsae url i.e. instead of running through as above I also want to be able to access urls such as http://www.testurl.com/test.pl instead of http://www.testurl.com/cgi-bin/test.pl this gets messed up as my way of doing it will always add the $folder variable into the compiled url via the join statement !!!. I know there will be an easy way of doing this but my brain has switched off !!!! Hard to explain, hopefully someone will get my gist :)
