I'd suggest you have a look at one of the WWW.Mechanize modules. They allow "higher level" interaction with websites and take care of all the low-level things such as headers and so.

A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James

    Good work, while you're at it you should visit this page and fill in a message on the guest book, saying you helped some jerk spam their page. While you're at it, there's some pick pockets at the mall who need your help spotting marks.

      If he's smart enough to use WWW::Mechanize successfully, I don't think simply not knowing the name of a module would hold him back for long.

        A. Clearly they didn't know it existed. B. It's trivial to use. You're trying to justify helping a troll why?
      And I am sure you are a great supporter of "security through obfuscation" too.

        Huh? So there's no middle ground? You're right, you did the right thing, helped a troll spam someone. Good job.
