I want to write a program, either in Perl or C that will connect to an HTTP server, at port 80, and be able to request from that server an HTML, ASP or CGI page, and receive from the server the streamed HTML in text format. How can this be done? Please be detailed, or if you can, please point me to references on the net that answer my question. [sig][/sig]
 
You will need to look into Sockets. This is how you connect to a TCP/IP port.

I dont have any links right now, but I will come back a little later and post some links for you to look at.

Regards,
Gerald
