LWP::Simple on Mac OS cannot use SSL until someone ports Net::SSL, basically. Until then, if you have the latest Mac OS (9.1, I believe, is required) you can use URL Access (perhaps via Mac::Glue) to access https sites, or you can try scripting the browser (again, perhaps via Mac::Glue). -- Chris Nandor [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pudge.net/ Open Source Development Network [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://osdn.com/
