Yes it's possible. Quite easy in fact. Examples are in the module documentation for LWP::UserAgent. Once you've read that if you want specific examples then come back here, you'll get plenty. I'm fairly sure that LWP::UserAgent is a standard module with ActivePerl The better way to do this is with Perl and LWP::UserAgent. See the docs in your ActivePerl documentation or perldoc LWP::UserAgent from the command prompt. >What about if the Web page is an HTTPS one? I've never done this, but the doco says that LWP::UserAgent handles this. -- Jason King _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Admin mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
