This is nothing to do with win32, so I've cut that list from the To: line. On Sun, 27 Jun 2004, bruce wrote: [...] > i was under the impression that if i concatenated the url and the > content/query from the headers, that i'd be able to "simulate" the submit
What do you mean by "the content/query from the headers"? I guess you mean the POST data? POST data != header data. An HTTP request contains 1. GET / POST line (containing the URL path), 2. headers, and 3. data. If you're taking a POST request you sniffed by some means, and issuing the corresponding GET request (GET /foo.cgi?post=data&goes=here HTTP/1.1), then, yes, whether or not that works is indeed entirely dependent on the way the code on the server was written.

Do a POST instead, using LWP. > i was under the impression that you were limited with regards > to the size of the content/query portion of the URL... [...] Apparently so. POST data is not part of the URL, though. John
