Hey Chris,
My MUA believes you used

LOL, yep it is. :-)
Bigger picture. I am processing a list of Windows servers and doing a
"net view" on each to see if they respond - then presenting an html
table via a web page. I have the current perl bit on a handfull of
servers (I don't trust 'em, they are all MS.) I also have the .csv on
each server, and would like to have it on only a couple (have to have
redundancy! :-).
So I am trying to get my 'net_view' perl bit read the server list from
a web server.

CD> $content = get($URL);

Yep, I also noticed Net::HTTP. Any reason I should use one over the
other?
btw all, thanks for the quick response!
