If it does not follow redirects then that is a bug. Do you have a
test cas
Hmmm
Looking at _trivial_http_get:
if ($code =~ /^30[1237]/ && $buf =~ /\012Location:\s*(\S+)/) {
# redirect
So it certainly seems like it's *trying to handle it.
As I recall (it was a late night when I had an application that wasn't

Just a word of warning: LWP::Simple doesn't follow redirects (at least,
the last I checked, not sure if it's been changed in the 3 or 4

Hey V, if you are on a *NIX system, then this is a fast way:
open U, "lynx -source www.some.url.dom |";
$data = join '', ;
There, you're finished. Admittedly, this isn't terribly efficiant, but it works
just fine and has short devel time.

Hello Vijay,
You can make simple HTTP GET or POST requests
using the LWP and HTTP modules. I recommend
that you read the ActivePerl help files.
I have attached the one you really need but
it probably won't make sense unless you read
up on LWP.
