Here is one, which is easy to understand. (I didn't write it, but it works fine).

#!/usr/bin/perl
#  Very simple client program to search for 
#  regular expressions on specified Web sites. 
# 
require 5.002;
use strict;
use Socket;

# Perl 5 technique for declaring local variables. 
my ( $host,     $in_addr, $proto, $port,    $addr );
my ( $response, $page,    $file,  $pattern, %urls );

# Set up some URLs and patterns in an array hash 
my @pages = ( "zentara.net/~zentara/poems.html", "zentara.net" );

foreach $page (@pages) {
    ( $host, $file ) = split /\//, $page, 2;

    # Form the HTTP server address from the host 
    # name and port number 
    $in_addr = ( gethostbyname($host) )[4];
    $port    = 80;
    $addr    = sockaddr_in( $port, $in_addr );
    $proto   = getprotobyname('tcp');

    # Create an Internet protocol socket. 
    socket( S, AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, $proto )
      or die "socket:$!";

    # Connect our socket to the server socket. 
    connect( S, $addr )
      or die "connect:$!";

    # For fflush on socket file handle after every 
    # write. 
    select(S);
    $| = 1;
    select(STDOUT);

    # Send get request to server. 

    print S "GET /$file HTTP/1.0\n\n";
    print "===================$page===========================\n";

    # Look for patterns in returned HTML. 
    while (<S>) {
        foreach $page (@pages) {
            print;
        }
    }
    close(S);
}
exit;
