Hi all. There is an "Shockwave Flash" plugin for uploading files on server, but its not mutch convenient, and quiet slow, thats why I want to write script on perl in order to upload files. it has 3 buttons: 1: "Get file" 2: "Reset" 3: "Upload" in order they to appear on main page I have login. The use of this plugin is simple, I have to push "Get file" button to get some file from harddrive, then I have to push "Upload" to upload this file, thats all. But there is some problem: I have cought some packets, being uploaded "file.txt". Those are packets analized by wireshark:

This is an entire session dumped after pushing the button "Upload", but I cant see there any login/password or cookies. Can anybody write a little draft on this script, just to guid me for HTTP-perl programming. I know there is a tool LWP, but the ecsact problems for me is I dont know where I have to put login/password, and when and how I can caught cookies for my login/password. May be this question is more about HTTP programming rather than perl, but at least its about LWP thats a perl liblrary. Thanks.
