Redirecting to an ASP page and passing form input.

[RevsEd]

Hi,

although I know ASP I know absolutely nothing about Perl. I've grabbed your FAQ and got the examples to work, so now am slightly better off than I was an hour or so ago.

My problem: I'm writing an ASP site which hits a Payment validation site and then has to write the result of the payment back to the database. All was going well until I realised that the only return values I get on the payment transaction are posted to a CGI script. Now, after playing with the examples in the FAQ I'm getting the return values okay. However, what I now want is for the CGI to just be used as a gateway back to ASP (and familiar ground). Basically, I'd like the cgi to receive the input and then post this on to an ASP form (without any user intervention).

I reckon this is possible, Perl seems a powerful language, I just don't have time to learn it and wondered if someone could be kind enough as to point me in the right direction - even if only to say that xxxx is the Perl equivalent of ASP's Redirect command.

Many thanks

Darren

PS. Apologies... I originally posted this in the CGI forum but this this is a better place for it.

It sounds like what you need is to use the perl LWP module to create a POST query to your ASP script.
