James,

Thanks so much for your help, it's now working great!

One question, if you don't mind...
my @urls = <LINKS>;     # slurp the file
Is this telling the diamond operator what to use for input?
Just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly.

Thanks again,

Brian

We're fine up to here.

Let's break that into two steps:

my @urls = <LINKS>;     # slurp the file

chomp @urls;    # remove line endings
