Dynamicly Execute URL without redirection

by Anonymous Monk
on Feb 11, 2004 at 15:56 UTC ( [id://328293]=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I have a URL that I would like to execute. I need variables in the URL to be posted correctly like this: 

myperlscript.pl?var1=1&var2=2

[download]

I just dont want to redirect.

I so far have tried all of these things:

print qx "myperlscript.pl?var1=1&var2=2";
system("myperlscript.pl?var1=1&var2=2");use 
my $response =LWP::UserAgent->new->get("myperlscript.pl?var1=1&var2=2"
+);

[download]

Thanks!!!

    You have to specify the whole URL so 
    my $response =LWP::UserAgent->new->get("http://www.mydomain.com/myperl
+script.pl?var1=1&var2=2");

    should be what you want.

    UPDATE:
    If you just want to run the script, then LWP::UserAgent may be overkill. LWP::Simple will probably do what you want. 
    use LWP::Simple;
my $data = get("http://www.mydomain.com/myperlscript.pl?var1=1&var2=2"
+);

    If you want a correct URL use the URI module to build it, for example:

    $uri = URI->new('http://www.example.com/myperlscript.pl');
$uri->query_form( 'var1' => $var1,
                  'var2' => $var2 );
$page = get( $uri->as_string );
