Pleae test this LWP example
I added: $result="$response->content"; print "<br>$result"; at the end of the script. I doesn't print anything and the form that the post was to shows nothing updated. Thanks for helping with this.- Travistee2

Pleae test this LWP example
Now that the example appears to work, I want to see if I can actually submit a form, so I tried this: ####################### print "before form was sent"; use strict; use warnings; use LWP 5.8.6; use LWP::UserAgent; my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new; $browser->env_proxy; my $url =...- Travistee2

Pleae test this LWP example
I print a line at the start of the script to see that it started ok. That line prints ok. Then the LWP above is next. Nothing happens for the LWP example I gave above. Can you give me the code for the call to env_proxy that you added. I don't know what you mean by using a proxy. What...- Travistee2

Pleae test this LWP example
I can't get this example using LWP to work. Can someone test this and let me know if it actually works the way it is. Then I can try to narrow down why it wont work for me. I understand that the version number for LWP should be the same as my PERL installation. thanks ########### use...- Travistee2

How to submit form from perl?
I looked at the LWP module. It has quite a long list of functions. Can someone narrow it down to the ones that let me send data to another script as if it was sent from a FORM POST. Since I have no control over the script it is sending to, I can't assume I will have something to check to...- Travistee2

Only allow a script to run if called from a specific location?
Thats not a foolproof solution. Its easy for someone to make a url that contains the strings you are checking for.- Travistee2
