I am trying to program an automated perl script to interact with a remote
website... ASP.NET with lots of javascript...messy stuff. I first had to run
a web scraping proxy server on the site, then converted the requests and
responses to a perl script with a handy utility.
The problem comes in when using the cookie_jar object. The Cookie.pm perl
module only handles Cookie and Cookie2 format. The site I am interfacing
with hands out Cookie3 format. I tried hacking Cookie.pm and manually
setting my headers in my requests in the perl script with properly formatted
cookies but I can only get so far into the site with the mixture of
techniques.
Any ideas on ways to handle Cookie3 format with perl's Cookie.pm?
