    I know this is very basic, but I'm searching all over the web for
    this but cannot find it.

    I am looking to create a PERL script that I can run as a CRON job
    on a hostgator UNIX server.

    The script will get a feed, such as

    http://digg.com/rss/containerworld_business.xml
    http://realestate.propeller.com/rss

    and put it on an existing html page on my website.
    The cron job should update that page every day.

    Please provide simple directions and/or a good website/tutorial that
    explains how to do this. There are many websites and tutorials but
    I haven't found one that shows this - although a ton of websites do it.
