in reply to LWP and Site Logins

If on Win32 you could try using the Win32::IE::Mechanize module and let IE take care of trickier issues like https and cookie handling:
#! usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Win32::IE::Mechanize; my $ie = Win32::IE::Mechanize->new(visible=>1); $ie->get('https://noii.nasdaqtrader.com'); $ie->form_name('Form1'); $ie->set_fields( txtUserName => 'email@wherever.com', txtUserPass => 'password' ); $ie->click('loginButton');
You can dump the HTML at any time for parsing with the $ie->content method

    I am using unix. And although it seems these Mechanize modules are being rec'd I would like to get it working with just using the LWP modules now. Thanks though.
