Hm, for example #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; my $file = '/some/path.txt'; my $text = '<a href="http://www.example.com">Linktext</a>'; # naïve url extraction example. See mailing list archive for # proper solution(s) of how to do this using a parser. my( $url ) = ($text =~ m{a href="(.*?)"}); open( my $fh, '>', $file ) or die "Can't open '$file': $!"; print $fh "$url\n"; close( $fh ) __END__ OTTH & YMMV of course.
