SPUG: HTTP Post

[Sanford Morton]

I don't know what a POST reply is, but if you want to make a POST request of a
CGI script, here's a snippet.

  use LWP::UserAgent;
  my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
  my $req = new HTTP::Request ('POST',$url_that_demands_POST_data);
  $req->content_type('application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
  $req->content($urlencoded_form_content);
  my $resp = $ua->request($req);
  if ($resp->is_success) { 
    &do_something_with_the_response($resp) 
  } else { 
    die $resp->as_string;
  }
