webcrawle with LWP: how to make redirection work?

[S]

Hi,

I am making a webcrawler and it needs to go through the login on the
front page. I use LWP:UserAgent and HTML::Form to basically post the
username and password to the site. Once past the login, I should be
redirected to a new page if I use a browser. However, in my Perl
script, the response I got is "HTTP/1.1 302 (Found) Object moved". I
think that means my code works for the login but fails to have a
sucessful redirection? How to actually go to the desired redirected
page? Thank you.
