Sup with this?
No worko...head banging against desk..

        use HTTP::Request::Common;
    $URL='https://site.com/cgi-bin/script.cgi';    
        %form = (
        key1=> 'value1,
        key2=> 'value2,
        );
        
         $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
         $ua->timeout(10);
         $form_ref = { %form }; 
       my $req = HTTP::Request->new(POST => $URL, $form_ref);
         my $res = $ua->request($req);

Not sure why I can't set the parameters in a hash rather than:
<code> key=>value, key2=>value, etc
because I have way to many dynamic keys and such...so why doesn't the $form_ref work? <code> I get this error:
Can't call method "clone" on unblessed reference at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/HTTP/Message.pm line 53.
