I just tried #2, or my interpretation of #2 and it didn't work... here is the code I used:
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "here we go again...";
if (eval "require LWP::UserAgent; use HTTP::Request::Common; 1
+;") {
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
my %post;
my $content = $ua->request(POST "http://www.cnn.com",
+[%post])->as_string;
print $content;
} else {
print "didnt work";
}
And here is the error I got:
./networktest.pl
String found where operator expected at ./networktest.pl line 10, near
+ "POST "http://www.cnn.com""
(Do you need to predeclare POST?)
syntax error at ./networktest.pl line 10, near "POST "http://www.cnn.c
+om""
Execution of ./networktest.pl aborted due to compilation errors.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
