Right , I mistyped.. I still don't understand why I'm not getting anything.
Here's the request I just sent:
'cookie2' => '$Version="1"',
'csrf-token' =>
'2802000000694a07615b7347000000746573746c6973742d66616e74617379666

656132313039623235383137343533386232366139',
'setmemberopts-btn' => 'Submit Your Changes',
'cookie' =>
'testlist-fantasyfarm.com+admin=2802000000694a07615b7328000000313937
633336333266336366383165333936316561323130396232353831373435333862
32366139',
'user-agent' => 'Mozilla/5.0',
'unsubscribees' => 'bernie'
----------------------------------------
'_method' => 'POST',
'_uri' =>
http://lists.fantasyfarm.com/admin.cgi/testlist-fantasyfarm.com/member
s/remove')}, 'URI::http' ),
And the page I got back was the remove page -- no error no success [it
should be an error, since I'm not subscribed to the list I'm playing with..:o)]
Do I have to do something special with the data for the 'unsubscribees' ? I
know it is a TEXTAREA -- but I just assumed I could pass it a string and
that'd be OK.
Thanks for the help!
