Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work for only gumtree. Below is the snippet of code that I am using. xxxxx represent the acutual post id and ziz value. Similar code works for other web applications only gumtree fails. Is it because, the form has a file upload control in it ? require 'mechanize' agent = WWW::Mechanize.new agent.user_agent_alias = 'Windows IE 6' page = agent.get(" http://www.gumtree.com/cgi-bin/email_poster.pl?posting_id=xxxxx&ziz=xxxxx") form = page.forms.with.name("email_friend").first form.from_email = 'xyz@gmail.com' form.message = "direct http post from code" results = agent.submit(form) Thanks Manjo ------=_Part_61390_15246521.1173963676755--
