I'm trying to write a perl client that emulates submitting a form with the
following fields: a text username, a text password, and a FILE type
file. If I use a browser, the file gets MIME-encoded (and this is what
the cgi-bin getting the submission expects).
But I can't figure out how to do this with libwww. The FAQ and lwpcook
don't have examples of how to do this, just plaintext files. I can send
plaintext (not helpful), I am connecting to the server (I tested against a
text-only form), if I send just the file, it doesn't come across right (I
don't even get headers on the other side! (I am testing this against a
fake web server that just outputs to file.)), and I can't figure out how
to make it put the right headers on to handle the MIME. Is there a LWP or
HTTP routine that will help me that I am somehow overlooking?
Any help would be appreciated.
