Code Snippets?

I didn't see it browsing around the doccumentation, but if I just missed it, a
RTFM would be great, with a pointer as to which FM I should be Ring.  :)

Just as an exercise, I created my own very simple html-walker bot.  Simple
Depth-First search algo.

It uses "get" and a lot of pattern matching to do the recursion itself, no
html:parse.

Does anyone have some code snippets for the concatinating of relative URLs vs
absolute URLs?

The bot is stumbling along the links, and runs into something like "<a href =
"../index.html">--</a> and chokes on the ../ part.

Anyone have some easier-to-understand code that I could learn off of?  I'm just
a beginner at perl.

Thanks for your time.
