Hello, I am trying to use LWP to print out an image. When I put the URL in the browser, it properly returns the image. When I use LWP, it returns a different representation of the image and all I see if special characters. Here is the URL that I call that returns a map if you put it in the browser. 
http://xml.sa.mapquest.com:80/?transaction=mapimage&datalen=153&data=7

Here is the code I use to try to get Perl to print out the same image. I stole this code from a seperate thread here on perlmonks.com. I wrote my own code and got the same result. 
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; 
$ua->timeout(10); 
$ua->env_proxy; 

$mapURL = "http://xml.sa.mapquest.com:80/?transaction=mapimage&datalen
+=153&data=71e3Q01g%7EgHl04e%28cN1os1%22%3E0wR3KkDxayw%7CY%25+0As9wU75

+bGl%2B+tvDhBP%23%2CbF8b29"
         
my $response = $ua->get($mapURL, 
   'User-Agent' => 'Mozilla/5.0 [en] (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0)', 
   'Accept' => 'image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, i
+mage/png, */*', 
   'Accept-Charset' => 'iso-8859-1,*,utf-8', 
   'Accept-Language' => 'en-US', 
); 
if ($response->is_success) { 
    print $response->content; 
}

Thanks in advance for whatever suggestions you may have for me.
