From the information you give, I'd imagine that you have a file handle
open, and are trying to read each line from it.

# FH is our example file handle
while(<FH>){
    #action on each line
}
[download]

Or...

my @file = <FH>;
foreach my $line (@file){
    # action on each line
}
[download]

The first example loops through the file opened on FH, while
the second example stores the file opened on FH in the array
@file, one line per entry. I hope this is what you wanted.
