[SOLVED] How can I use wget in Perl ???

[jaigs_27]

Please suggest how can I use following statement in perl

wget "http://webserver/test.cgi?year=2007&data=test&date=2008-03-04"

[wje_lf]

system ('wget "http://webserver/test.cgi?year=2007&data=test&date=2008-03-04"');

should do it.

jaigs_27, you've asked lots of questions about Perl at this site. Have you considered just working through a Perl tutorial? You might discover ideas for using Perl that you'd never have imagined otherwise.

Thanks a lot.

Ya, you are right I'll take care of it henceforth.

Sorry if I am disturbing you lot.

[wje_lf]

Hey, there was no disturbing. :)

It's just that in the long run, documentation can be a better friend for you than we can.

Sometimes documentation isn't enough. I'm thinking those situations are what we're basically here for. Come back if you need us!

Thanks a lot

system ('wget "http://webserver/test.cgi?year=2007&data=test&date=2008-03-04"');

this failing when passing varaible instead of strings

like
system ('wget "http://webserver/test.cgi?year=$year&data=test&date=$date"');

Thanks resolved
