Hi all,
Does anyone know if it is possible to set a wrong Content-Length with =
LWP?
Or if not, then how can we do it?
The following corrects it and sets it to "Content-length: 5":
$ua->post( $url, 'Content-Length' =3D> 3, Content =3D> '12345' );
The following also does the same, plus it shows a warning telling that =
Content-Length was corrected:
my $req =3D HTTP::Request->new( POST =3D> $url );
$req->header( 'Content-Length' =3D> 3 );
$req->content("12345");
I need to send a Content-Length that has a different value than the =
length of the posted content.
Thank you.
