This code is returning me the web form page. I want it to submit the web form and get the actual results page, not the form page. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
use strict; use LWP::Simple; use URI::URL; my $url = url("http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgGateway?clade=vertebra +te&org=0&db=0&hgsid=63734053"); $url->query_form(clade => "vertebrate", org => "Human", db => "hg17", position => "NM_000747", pix => 620, hgsid => 63734054, Submit => "submit", customTrackPage => "add your own custom tracks", hgTracksConfigPage => "configure tracks and display" ); my $page = get($url); open (OUTPUT, ">output.html") || die "Could not open output: $!\n\n"; print OUTPUT $page;
