hi list!

i need your help:

i use LWP to fetch a login page, that i need to fill out and re-send to the
server in order to authenticate an user in a Single Sign-On environment.

i need to fetch some input type's values from the original login page, put
username & password and then send everything via POST to the server.

i have two problems:

1. how can i make a post request?
2. when i fetch data, i also need to fetch a cookie, that contains the
session ID.how can i "foward" it to the browser?

thanks a lot!!

Look at WWW::Mechanize for taking care of most of this for you.
