in reply to need help downloading a file

Please don't paste links to offsite code.

Put your code here, in between <code>...</code> tags so that everybody can see it.

What exactly is the problem with your code? Does it download the wrong content? Does it get an unexpected server response?

The idea behind automating HTTP downloads is to ideally send exactly the headers that the working example is sending. See the curl documentation to make Curl output the headers it sends and then LWP::ConsoleLogger to see what LWP sends. Compare the two and adjust your program until they send the same data.

    I used vtext.net as that is what the developers like over on the chat channels. But if you are willing to help me, I will paint it green if you want! I do have a difficult time with the format on this forum, but I use it anyway because you guys are scary good at what you do.
