hello everybody, :)
i'm just starting with perl and i have come across a little problem that
i cant seem to solve, atm i have this code ...
my $response = $ua->request(POST $url,
Content_Type => 'form-data',
Content => my %fq_hash);
i would like the hash values in $fq_hash to be submitted as a form reply
using post but for some reason the script the the values are posted to
never seems to recive them :( .. i know the %fq_hash hash has the right
data in because i tried a
print %fq_hash;
and it returned what i expected
if anybody could help me out that would be wonderful,
and if you can explain why this isn't working it would help me to learn
about perl :)
Cheers,
Matty.
This is just a WAG but should it be:
my %fq_hash = ();
my $response = $ua->request( POST $url,
Content_Type => 'form-data',
Content => \%fq_hash,
);
This would sent a reference to %fq_hash to the method, which should
populate it.
hello, i tried the code you gave me and the file that the data was being
posted to didn't seem to get the data ...
but then i went back to a commented line that i had lying around from
what i was tring before which was this ...
my $response = $ua->post( $url, %fq_hash );
and added in the \ to make this ..
my $response = $ua->post( $url, \%fq_hash );
and now it works fine :) hehe yay,
like hours and hours of messing about and all i was missing is a \ ....!
Cheers for you help.
Matty.
