Passing parameters + capturing output 1

[sucram]

Hey Everyone,

I am a student and very new to perl.
There is a web page that takes in a single parameter and outputs another web page, it is basically a text field and a submit button. I want to send many parameters, one after another, to the page and capture the web page that is returned and store it in a file.

Does anyone have any help to get me started, I really don't have much of a clue on what to do.
How do I pass the info into the script?
How to capture the info?

Thanks,
Marcus

P.S: Sorry if you can't understand what I am trying to do I'll try and explain it better if required

You can use the LWP module to send a request to a server and get back the results.

Glad I could be of assistance. The LWP module is a really handy one that I've found several uses for. I've even used it to run a perl script on another server and return the results to me. Tracy Dryden

That is exactly what I was using it for. It is really handy.

Thanks Again!
