Hi David,

For the server (or for the HTTP protocol) there's no difference whatsoever
for a hidden input field. It's just the browsers that don't display it on
screen.

So you can submit a hidden field just as any other field, in particular,
exactly as you would submit a type="text" field.

Regards,

Thor.

Subject: need help posting hidden form data to url


I am new to lwp.
I have been able to request url's so far. I don't understand the docs at
CPAN when it talks about posting data.
Please explain to me how I would post this form using lwp:

<TABLE cellPadding=0 width="98%" border=0>
        <TBODY>
         <TR>
          <TD width="100%"><FONT face="Myriad Roman, Arial"><B>Login
            ID</B></FONT> <INPUT maxLength=20 size=12 name=LOGIN value="">
<FONT
            face="Myriad Roman, Arial"><B>Password </B></FONT><INPUT
            type=password maxLength=30 size=12 name=PASSWORD value="$pass">
            <INPUT type=submit value=Go border=0 name=LOGINBTN> <INPUT
            type=hidden value=1 name=TIMES_SUBMITTED> <INPUT type=hidden
value=0
            name=submitcount> <INPUT type=hidden value=1
            name=DispWelcome><BR><FONT face="Myriad Roman, Arial"
size=2>Forgot
            your <A
href="https://www.gerlerenterprises.com/app/mypage/forgotid.asp";>Login ID
            or Password</A>.</FONT></TD><BR></TR>
        <TR>
          <TD colspan="2"></TD>
        </TR>
</table>

Any help that you can provide is greatly appreciated.
