My script below works fine going against a http page but not > against an https site. Secure web servers speak in https support for this protocol is not part of the standard LWP package. However I believe that you can add support for the https protocol using the Crypt::SSLeay module. You can find some info at http://www.adpc.purdue.edu/WebSvc/PerlDocs/lib/site/Crypt/SSLeay.html . I've only used LWP a few times and I've never had to access secure sites, but it appears that once you have the SSLeay module installed it will work transparently through the standard LWP methods.
