Basically the program is going to pull the line movement data from the website. I have another portion of the program which harvests the links off the site and puts them into an array. For example, if I'm looking at NFL odd in vegas, it will go to the nfl odds in vegas page, and pull all the links to the games there.

From this array I want to use a subroutine (using WWW::Mechanize) to go to the links in the array and download the page to my computer.

I think the problem I have stems from the fact that there is an @ sign in the url. When I test the script with a variable with single quotes, I'm able to get the page. When I try to use the subroutine I get an error. 400 bad request
