given the following URL: http://www.codingforums.com/newreply.php?s=&action=newreply&threadid=29407

the page name is http://www.codingforums.com/newreply.php

the question mark indicates more information

s= is setting the pariable s to undef

ampersand is for another variabls

action=newreply is setting the variable action to newreply.

you must import the variables using the CGI module.
