Yes. I have a list of links (with session ID, etc) i need to hit on a website. Contrary to my first post, I actually need to issue the POST command.
example..I can:

nc -vvv website.org 80

and then put in my command:

POST http://website.org/action2?sessionid /HTTP/1.0

then i hit return a few times...and i get the html output.
BUT
as most have pointed out, I think LWP is the easiest, and best way, especially for me..

also note, the "http://website.org/action2?sessionid" is coming from an array, because it's a bunch of links in a file.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
