Call URL from Perl

[Kalin Evtimov]

Hi!
I want to imlement a SMS-Sender on our server. It generates a http-Address, something like (http://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg?user=aaa, etc.)

After I have the URL, I would like to run it automatically over the same scrpt (no browser and stiuff). Is that possible?

Thanks
