Anyone know is it possible to get data from sites that use flash using LWP?

LWP doesn't "get sites". It performs HTTP requests, HTTPS requests, etc. It can perform more or less any HTTP and HTTPS request a browser can make, include those that get .swf files.

Any way to make lwp fake it is flash enabled browser?

I don't see why an HTTP server would care about whether a client is "flash enabled" or not, but it's not outside the realm of possibilities. If you're dealing with a server that makes that determination, you'll have to tell us how it makes that determination since HTTP doesn't provide a builtin means specifying this. If it's based on the agent string, you can tell LWP to use the same agent string as the browser of your choice.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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.
