Hello!

I need a perl script to redirect to an ASP page, with sending some data. When I do it to send to another Perl page I use:
print "Location: $url?$data\n\n";
and it works fine.

If $url is an .asp script, the data is never considered as received (or correctly received).

I also tried using LWP::Post, LWP::Simple, same thing, the data is never sent.

I also tried to "escape" $data as I read somewhere:
my $EscapedStr = URI::Escape::uri_escape($data);
It does not change anything.

The only way is to submit manually a POST form to the url, and then here it is working. But I need a direct call from my perl script.

Note: The perl script must just redirect to the asp page with the data, no need to receive anything back.

Thank you!
