I have a server application which accepts http(s) requests like this http://xyz.com/click/phoenix/339cd9314fe0136d3c30f6e9984b1ddc?clickId=sfshsksk1234go. There are two steps to this request, first, when the above url is requested it responds with a JS code and this has to be executed in turn to complete the request to the server. When i open this in the browser, the whole path would work fine since browser executes JS. But how do i simulate the same in a perl script, the machine on which i run this is ubuntu 10.0.4 and does not have ui (so does not have firefox or other things to use www mechanize firefox and the likes) Following steps 1) Request http://xyz.com/click/phoenix/339cd9314fe0136d3c30f6e9984b1ddc?clickId=sfshsksk1234go 2) set xforwarded proto for the above request. 3) Execute the JS of the intermediate response to complete the request. Any help would be much appreciated.
