I would appreciate anyone's help out there with proper syntax for a
libwww question.
I'm trying to extract an escaped query string from a secure server that
I'm working with. The code that allows me to get a html page from the
same server is as follows:
# subroutine to capture html text from a specific page
sub cap_html
{
# initializing the user agent
my $useragent = new LWP::UserAgent;
# setting the user agent value
$useragent->agent("project/1.0");
# initializing the request value
my $request = new HTTP::Request("GET", $requestpage);
# sending request with login name and password
$request->authorization_basic("username","password");
# setting value of the response variable
my $response = $useragent->request($request);
# checking to see if there is a good response
if($response->is_success)
{
# setting the html capture variablethe html received
$html_capture = $response->content;
}
else
{
# printing the error received
print "HTML Error: " . $response->message . "\n";
}
}
This code works fine, I'm having problems getting the same thing to work
using the
URI::URL:: $url->equery
I want to be able to retreive the query string, anyone have any sample
code they could post??
