in thread LWP::Simple::get($url) does not work for some urls

Maybe I misunderstood your reply, but I'm quite sure that LWP::Simple is ignorant to the content-type and just returns whatever the server sends. It doesn't complain when the content-type is xhtml and not html.

    I agree. The problem isn't with LWP::Simple, but with Wikipedia. Sorry if there was a misunderstanding.
