Welcome to the Monastery!

But as to your post, < ...sigh >

Please...

1. read How do I post a question effectively?
2. Show us the RELEVANT code (inside <code> tags)
3. Update you question so we can tell what you're asking (and include the actual error: is it a 404?)

And, just as a random thought, which may or may not be helpful, are you sure the page exists where you're looking for it?

You might want to try WWW::Mechanize to get the original page; you can then use follow_link(text=>$link_name) to access the link. If there's a question of cookie management, Mech will handle that for you.

This guess assumes that the name of the link you want to follow is constant, even though the URL is not (this is a wild guess based on your description).

Go ahead and post whatever code you have (you can change the link to something else if you don't want to specify what site you're scraping). It'll make it easier for us to see that you're trying to do. (English descriptions of processes are notoriously poor.)

Sorry guys, I should of read that before, Didn't mean to make such a poor entrance.. I will take a look at WWW::Mechanize and update my post with some code.. Thanks
