how to submit a form with click on image

[Pawel Banys]

Hello,

There is a form which contains the following element:

<FORM name="testForm" method="post" action="http://server/some_script">
......../ some standard entry fields /.......
<input type="image" name="img_submit" src="click.jpg" alt="click on me">
</form>

When that image is clicked on the webpage, the "some_script" is called and
shows some results.

How to post data and submit such form using Perl script so that the click on
image is simulated and "some_script" executes normally just like after real
clicking?

Thank you for any help.

Check out the LWP module. Do you know how to download and use modules?
If not, check out the www.cpan.org website.
