How do you do it in a POST request? The HTTP headers should not be
diferent between GET and POST.

http = Net::HTTP.new('example.com', 80)

# POST request
data = 'searchaction=show&search=1'
headers = {
  'User-Agent' => 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3)
Gecko/20090824 Firefox/3.5.3',
  'Cookie' => cookie,
  'Referer' => 'Referer: http://plain-text.info/search/',
  'Content-Type' => 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
}

resp, data = http.post(path, data, headers)

Hi,

This works:

headers = {'Referer' => 'Referer: http://plain-text.info/search/'}
http = Net::HTTP.new('www.example.com', 80)
resp, data = http.get "/", headers

For details you can look here: http://apidock.com/ruby/Net/HTTP/get
