I am trying to use Perl's LWP to grab the page
http://www.house.gov/htbin/crsprodget?/ra/RAINDEX. However, I get the
following message: "Permission denied."

Perhaps this is best explained by describing what happens with Netscape or
Internet Explorer. If I use my usual Web browser to click from
http://www.house.gov/markgreen/crs.htm, where this link is found, the page
is displayed without any problem. However, if I copy the
http://www.house.gov/htbin/crsprodget?/ra/RAINDEX link into a new browser
window, I get the Permission Denied message.

It does not appear to be a cookie issue. If I disable cookies in my browser,
the same thing happens.

One clue: When I save the http://www.house.gov/markgreen/crs.htm page onto
my hard drive and open that page locally, clicking on the
http://www.house.gov/htbin/crsprodget?/ra/RAINDEX link provides the same
"Permission denied" error.

Can someone let me know why I am denied access? How might I get access to
it?

Thanks in advance!

JF
