OK, now I understand!
Thank you, however, the variable is just the
element (ie unique name (names).html), i added the <0>
as I thought based on my ksh script, which is terribly slow
required a (cnt(cnt+1)) with cnt(0).html as the
output to redirct to.
But I had to then had to rename 1.html, 2.html and so forth
into a 12345.html, 34343.html for example
I am going to test this to see what happens

Upon my modifications, and executing the script, I get the following errors.
$ perl.exe perl1.pl
Variable "$NAMES" is not imported at perl1.pl line 36.
Global symbol "$NAMES" requires explicit package name at perl1.pl line 36.
Missing comma after first argument to open function at perl1.pl line 43, near ""
Cannot open target file. $!\n";"
Execution of perl1.pl aborted due to compilation errors. UPDATE- Modifications.
