Hi,

Analysing the traffic difference between Perl and Lynx gives me this:

Lynx sends in one frame POST & URL & field values.
while Perl sends only POST & URL without field values,
then Perl waits(?) for an 'ACK'
and then it sends the field values in another frame and is redirected to the initial page.

Is there anything to change this behviour?
This is my code to to get the next form: 

BEGIN { *LWP::UserAgent::redirect_ok = sub {1} }
$ub = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$ub->agent($MOZILLA);
$res = $ub->request($form[1]->click('image',0,0));
# or this: $res = $ub->request(POST $URL, @TEL);

Again thank you very much for the support,
it helped me a lot,
Carl
