Am I getting close...?
my $file = "/Program Files/OptiPerl/urls.txt";
open (LINKS, $file) or die "Can't open $file: $!";
chomp (@url = read(LINKS, $url, 100));
Thanks for your help!
Brian

Exactly, right. I'll give the steps:
1. open() your file. Remember to check if it succeeds!
2. Read line by line, chomp()ing line endings and adding them to an
array.
3. close() fiie and use array in foreach loop.
Just shout if you need more help...
