I want to open and parse the contents of a web page on the WWW. Is there anyway I can do this using PERL?

well, you can use an open(FILEHANDLE, "wget blabhablh". " |") or die "Cannot open wget: $!";

basically, that would take the output of wget blabalhbh and put it to a file handle so you can actually do something with it
