I am trying use a servlet to automate posting to a perl script. My tests
run fine with normal CGI's such as ones like Yahoo and others using the Get
method and some of my own using the Post method. However when I try and
post to a xxxx.pl web page I just get the Get response, not the Post which
processes the information. I do not have control or access to the .pl file
so I kind of have to work around it.
I don't believe that the web page is sending any hidden information. I
saved a copy of the page on my own machine and ran it just fine so the perl
file isn't looking at where the request is coming from either.
I am ending my streams with a \r\n. Could this be the problem? Is there a
special syntax I should be trying rather than
"A=B&C=D\r\n" ?
The inputs don't require any encoding and besides I tried this and it
didn't fix the problem.
Please let me know of any reason why this might be so. Any ideas at all
would be helpful.
Please cc to me your reply if you are going to post your answer to the mail
list.
Thanks,
Matt Penner
