Form submitted by a script instead of a user 1

[refulgent]

Hi Everyone,

I am wondering if it is possible to write a script that will submit a form that it doesnt necesserily have control of. For examle if i want to do google search for apples, this script will submit the google form with a keyword 'apple' and show only results, instead of me going to google page and submitting the form manually.

Is such thing possible to do?

Thanks in advance,

Refulgent

See LWP docs....

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use LWP::Simple;
$url = '[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.perl.com/';[/URL]
$response = get($url);
print "$response\n";

You can get a lot more control of the request if you use some of the other LWP tricks...... check out the docs...
