You should be able to call script2.pl like: http://mysite.com/cgi-bin/script2.pl?sent=Hello+World by typing that into the browser Address bar, and it should print something like Got sent = 'Hello World' Can't remember what format I had it printing but it was something like that. Once it works ie shows you what you sent it in the query string it will do the same when you call it using LWP::Simple get() method with the same URL. You can then just get it to print 'OK' which you then get back in $res:

use LWP::Simple; my $res = get( 'http://mysite.com/cgi-bin/script2.pl?sent=Hello+World' + ); if ( $res eq 'OK' ) { # blah }
