If you can access it via a browser, you can access it through perl.
there are a lot of ways that people will try to verify you don't, but in the end, it is possible.
- what happens when you telnet to the address?
- are you setting the user agent?
- is this url in the middle of a sequence? you may need to set the referred from, too.
these are what I can think of off the top of my head. there's probably a whole lot more. | [reply] |
1) Hmm... well I telneted to the address and when I issued the GET command, it returned the proper page.
2) No, I didn't set the user agent. What should I set it to for the best likelihood of getting a good result?
3) This URL is directly accessible.
Update: Perhaps I can use GET to retrieve the results of CGI's. Preferably, I'd like to be able to get a correct header back. As long as get works, I might be ok. *goes to fiddle around with it some more*
