    I found a really good one actually.. HTML::FormatText. works like a charm!

    Yeah Tim, I was doing something like that previously but my application has gotten more a little more critical and due to network lapses etc, I need to make sure I get the file. So I had the choice of either writing a wrapper for lynx or writing a more flexible page getting program... I went with the latter.

    Thanks for all your help.. it's greatly appreciated
