Gorby has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hello Wise Monks. Is there a way for me to execut http GET and POST commands using a PERL module? I know LWP:Simple can do that quite efficiently, but what I need is a module that can connect to a port other than port 80, and still do the usual http requests like GET and POST, etc. Can you help me?
Thanks in advance.

LWP takes port encoded URLs, http://www.sun.com:8080 goes to port 8080. | [reply] |

LPW comes with utilities called "GET" and "POST". Guess
what they do?
