Now I paste my code....the one I used and the error message...I would'nt past it before for not looking so stupid as I am....:-( 

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP::Simple;


my $url3="http://microrna.sanger.ac.uk/cgi-bin/targets/v5/detail_view.
+pl?transcript_id=ENST00000226253";
my $content=get $url3;

use HTML::TreeBuilder;
my $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder->new;
$tree->parse_file($content);
$tree->delete;
use HTML::Element;


my @elements = my $element->find('b',);
my @anchors = $element->look_down('_tag' => 'b');

print "@elements\n";

and now the error.... Can't call method "find" on an undefined value at test.pl line 17......I don't now how to select the string between "b" and "/b" because I don't actually know html......and I don't understand the synthax...
