I want to submit some jobs to the web site "http://www.jcat.de/" using perl. I writted a script using the LWP, but it always produce a 500 internal server error. I can not figure out how to do correctly.

The select form looks like this:

<option value="330 Escherichia coli O6:K15:H31 (strain 536 / UPEC)">Escherichia coli O6:K15:H31 (strain 536 / UPEC)</option>

<option value="40 Escherichia coli O6 (strain UPEC / O6:H1 / ATCC 700928 / CFT073)">Escherichia coli O6 (strain UPEC / O6:H1 / ATCC 700928 / CFT073)</option>

<option value="317 Escherichia coli (strain ATCC 27325 / DSM 5911 / W3110 / K12)">Escherichia coli (strain ATCC 27325 / DSM 5911 / W3110 / K12)</option>

  my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;
  my $url = "http://www.jcat.de/Result.jsp";
  #submit
  my $response = $browser->post( $url,
    [ 
      'Sequence' => $ori_seq,#42 Escherichia coli (strain K12)
      'seq_type' => 'DNA',
      'genome' => '42 Escherichia coli (strain K12)',
      'hairpin' => 'checked',
      'quickChange' => 'checked',
    ]);
