Hi guys,

I am wondering if anyone has any experience doing post requests. I am
trying to automate a request without having much luck.....

I have HTML page which simulates the post for me, however I don't want
to include this. Its very simple and works, however trying to do this
using Ruby is proving a little difficult.....
Here is the HTML:

<html><head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head><body><form name="input" action="https://www.examplesite.com";
method="post">
promotions code: <input name="promotions_code" value="XXXXX"
type="text">
<input name='button' value="Submit" type="submit">
</form>
</body></html>

I am trying to simulate this using net/http, and have come up with the
following code:
Net::HTTP.post_form(URI.parse('https://www.examplesite.com'),
{'promotions_code' => 'XXXXX', 'button' => 'Submit'})

However I keep getting a BadResponse error. Im not too sure what the
problem is here? Has anyone tried doing posts before, or can anyone
see anything wrong with what I am doing?

Thanks in advance

Mo
