Re^11: Shortest/quickest way for Perl to take POST data it receives and send a POST request with this data to another URL?

I tend to agree. That was not the OP's question though and it is easy to imagine the real use case is not a straight-up proxy. And exploring Perl options is more fun, well, not so much today apparently, and edifying.

I tend to agree. That was not the OP's question though Really? I thought that was exactly what he asked for? A possible solution is, of course, to parse the data using CGI, then to form and send a POST request using LWP, but this seem un-Perl-like and inelegant. Surely there's a simpler solution? With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

Now you’re just messing with me… Is there a way to take the request that was used to access a cgi script and turn it into an HTTP::Request object?	[reply]
