I am looking to send some variables I have in a perl application to some in a php app. To do this I would like to use the POST method.
Is there a way that this can be done without having to put the variables in a form that needs a submit button?
I'm currently thinking along the lines of an intermediary perl script that gets the variables and redirects the user to the php app. Doing this I can easily append the variables using the GET method, but I would prefer to use the POST if at all possible.
Note this does not to be a secure application link.
Thanks

have you looked at curl [curl.haxx.se]?
I am trying out the curl library.
I must be reading the docs wrong somewhere as I keep getting a "The page cannot be displayed" in the browser.
I can see no error in the apache logs.
I am using this as my intermediate script.
#!c:/data/perl/bin/perlmy $username = test;
my $password = test;
exec "curl -d 'username=$username%20password=$password' localhost/myphpprog/login.php";
exit();
Any ideas as to what I missing out?
