in reply to Stumped Regular expressions

I stuck a 'global' modifier on the end:
use strict;
use warnings;

my $line_count = 0;
open(F, "test.htm");
    while(<F>) {
        my @a = $_ =~ m{(http://hosting/image\d+\.jpg)}g;
        for my $url (@a) {
            print "URL [ $url ] found on line ($line_count)\n";
        }
        $line_count++;
    }
close(F);

    This could be further simplified by using the special variable $. (INPUT_LINE_NUMBER) instead of $line_count: 
    open(F, "test.htm");
    while(<F>) {
        my @a = $_ =~ m{(http://hosting/image\d+\.jpg)}g;
        for my $url (@a) {
            print "URL [ $url ] found on line ($.)\n";
        }
    }
close(F);
