You're welcome! :)

That's a problem that occurred with the original macro that I had on
the page, because there was a typo in it. I've updated the webpage to
be more correct. Here's the issue: in the macro definition, you need
to put a backslash in front of the $'s, so that they're evaluated when
the macro is evaluated, rather than when the macro is defined. For
example:
macro index,pager \cb "<enter-command> set my_pdsave=\$pipe_decode<enter>\
<enter-command> unset pipe_decode<enter>\
<pipe-message>extract_url.pl<enter>\
<enter-command> set pipe_decode=\$my_pdsave<enter>" "get URLs"
Note the \$ parts? That fixes that "set variable" problem.
