Interesting discussion, I was just trying, in a somewhat more civil
manner than "RTFM", to merely point out that the original poster hadn't
done his/her homework and used the help of looking in the docs that had
already been offered. :-)

HI Randal,
Although not in the Perl culture, I have indeed seen a great deal of cargo cult
thinking in my years, and I fully agree that such consciousness is a Very Bad Thing.
On a quick skim of lwpcook, I would also tend to agree that this is a good source of

And therefore, you misunderstood my purpose.
You have not *seen* the amount of cargo-cult c**p that I've seen
in advising people about Perl over 13 years.
Maybe it's interesting to know ho
Hi Randal,
I must take issue with you here. Whatever the convenience of such utilities in a
production environment, there is a definite advantage to the learning process in
hand-coding. I learned something just from reading the example--that there was a
specific MIME for httP posts. Whatever

There's nothing wrong with Wiggins' advice. Take a look at "the first URL
[he] posted earlier" and you'll find nothing about the HTTP::Request::Common
module at all. In fact I can't find anywhere it tells you not to use the
constructor directly - the nearest I've come across is in the POD f

Right. And that is what the LWP module is for. From the docs on the
first URL I posted earlier:
An Example
This example shows how the user agent, a request and a response are
represented in actual perl code:
# Create a user agent object
use LWP::UserAgent;
$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;

What I want is
when a visitor came and post something to my cgi script
that script must post some of that information to another cgi script on
