I know that I already posted a response that said I got '404 file not found'
but two minutes later, after trying a third time to get there, I got there.
:) So I jumped the gun earlier, sorry to everyone for cluttering up the
mailing list. Now, to the real point of this post: I've already seen the
LWPcookbook (and specifically the very page I was directed to) and I've
tried to use the example included, but I couldn't make it work. I need to
know how I can fill out all the fields that are POSTed to the CGI script. I
even know all the field names that I need to fill.
If anyone has a response for me that doesn't say "go look at the
documentation" it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
