You don't need to put the print in a while loop. `print <HTML>;`reads in list context	[reply] [d/l]

Ahhh... that is true... I'd thing using the local $/; would be more efficient, tho, since it doesn't need to convert the output to a list. - Ant	[reply]

I'd have thought a `print while <HTML>;` loop would be more efficient, since it doesn't need a huge memory buffer, and it can be doing the input and output simultaneously	[reply] [d/l]
