Sounds like you need LWP.
There is a book that imho doesn't give much help but is the only one
I found out there (you can get enough from online docs). Really I
would just go to the ORA ftp site and download the examples:
ftp.ora.com/pub/examples/nutshell/web-client
On my server at
http://www.rede.com/samples/webping.html
webping.cgi
and here is a script I use to check urls:
bob.pl
And of course just check
http://www.perl.com/
and do a search for lwp.
