You should instead look at: http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.6.1/lib/HTTP/Response.html http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.6.1/lib/HTTP/Message.html http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.6.1/lib/HTTP/Headers.html The short story is that you use: my $field_value = $res->header("Foo"); > In my specific case i receive a cookie that i need to pick up and some > redirectinoal headers. my $cookie = $res->header("Set-Cookie"); my $loc = $res->header("Location"); but LWP also has ways to deal with this stuff automatically, by associating a cookie_jar with the user agent and transparent refetching on redirects.
