Hello: I am using HTML::FORM to get all the form elements. The URL I go to has Input names as the same name from multiple fields. For example there are 4 date fields called FDATE. When I use the HTML::FORM to view the fields it display FDATE only once.

The question is How do I get all the FDATE fields and How do I update each one with different dates?. Here is my code to get the name and values.

use LWP::UserAgent; use HTML::Form; my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; my $response = $ua->get("http://www.hellp.com/test.exe"); my @forms = HTML::Form->parse($response->content, $response->base); foreach $form(@forms) { @names = $form->param; foreach $name(@names) { @values = $form->param( $name ); foreach $values(@values) { print "Name:$name Value of:$values \n"; } } #print "$form \n"; }
Thanks for your help in advance.

Edit by castaway - added code tags
