in thread Webbot with Perl for Factiva data collection
Use a tool (ethereal, etc.) to capture the POST (or whatever) using a web browser. Then you can simply generate a similar POST, filling in the blanks with your new values. Then parse the resulting page for the information you desire. (Insert standard warning about the unsuitability of regular expressions for parsing HTML here.)
