      Thanks for your reply .. but i think you didn't got what i mean

      The Form is already exits .. and what i want is Posting information into it Remotely ...

      i'm using HTTP::Request::Common & LWP::UserAgent and i can ONLY pass the first step with it .. my problem is how to pass the second step of the FORM ??

        WWW::Mechanize might make things a lot easier (it actually uses LWP::UserAgent underneath) -- it can basically fill out the form for you, and fill out another form on the resulting page, etc (it's basically a browser)..

    Why should this have anything to do with Perl?
