Hello wise ones, I'm having troubles using cookies with LWP::Parallel. I want to be able to test concurrent pages requests keeping the first cookie I get (in this peculiar case the ASPSESSIONID of ASP pages ie: the session). I also (and succeeded to) manage to POST params to the different pages. I set up a couple of test pages:

http://212.31.252.200/test/benchmark/1.asp (here I setup an ASP session variable and collect a post param)

http://212.31.252.200/test/benchmark/2.asp (here I should print the session variable ,if the cookie was successfully resent and the POSTed param)

Could you suggest me some fine excape?

many thanks yours
G.

P.S. obviuosly the code skeletorn is not mine, I just lost the reference to the author, I'll postit as soon I find it back. 8)
