Paid on delivery
This is probably a 10 minute job for the right person, but that person is not me. All I need to do is get the dynamic html of a site... thats it. I can do it easily with a browser but my perl script won't yet do the job. The site is https, requires a login and uses cookies/session key. The content is generated from a database (sql?) and is specific to my login. I have complete authorization to access site (this is not a break-in job), I just want to do it via script. What I would like to do is walk the coder through the manual (browser) access to the site, show the coder my pathetic script and have that person show me where I went wrong, fix script, or provide better script. Resulting script will deliver the html of the page I require to a local file. Notes: I can access certain pages of the site in question via script but not others(static - yes, dynamic - no). I can POST my name and password and recognize that the server is trying to set a cookie. I am using HTTP::Cookies (probably not correctly). ## Deliverables Script that delivers html of specified page. Complete source code of all programming work done - All coding commented, please. Brief explanation of why my code doesn't work (if possible). ## Deadline information no deadline, but sooner is better
