i have hundreds of files to submit to

http://propka.ki.ku.dk/~drogers/

for analysis. the inputs are some 4-letter code, e.g. 1a00, 1brs, 2bti,
3bmn, ...

How can I tell perl to submit the values and retrieve the results under a
Linux platform?

Is this the first place you go for help? Try reading through
some documentation, asking co-workers, searching the Internet,
searching CPAN, or make some attempt at finding a solution on
your own.

Searching the Internet on "perl http submit" returned many
helpful places to start. Here are a few more:

perldoc lwpcook

LWP::Simple
WWW::Mechanize
lwp-request

Hi,
Did you try the LWP module from CPAN ?

Best regards,
