It is a simple http client. So it does not take care of special chars e.g. whitspaces.
For details see e.g. perl HTTP::Request::Common documentation
and
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc1341/0_TableOfContents.html
The output is gathered in several blocks, if necessary. The
parameter maxlen is used to determine the last data block by
its length. The first block with less than maxlen bytes is
considered the last one.
The document which the server returns as a string.
