I think Alice in Wonderland addressed this issue:
--------------------------
`Or else what?' said Alice, for the Knight had made a sudden pause.

`Or else it doesn't, you know. The name of the song is called "Haddocks'
Eyes."'

`Oh, that's the name of the song, is it?' Alice said, trying to feel
interested.

`No, you don't understand,' the Knight said, looking a little vexed. `That's
what the name is called. The name really is "The Aged Aged Man."'

`Then I ought to have said "That's what the song is called"?' Alice
corrected herself.

`No, you oughtn't: that's quite another thing! The song is called "Ways and
Means": but that's only what it's called, you know!'

`Well, what is the song, then?' said Alice, who was by this time completely
bewildered.

`I was coming to that,' the Knight said. `The song really is "A-sitting On A
Gate": and the tune's my own invention.'

The OP undoubtably has not investigated
http://search.cpan.org/search?query=LinkExtractor
or a general-purpose HTML parser.

I would use WWW::Mechanize.
