looks like he went with the telnet-solution
Code:
(sleep 4; echo "GET /path/to/script.php?some=getvariables HTTP/1.1"; echo ""; sleep 5) | telnet ServerName.com 80

Do you have wget, curl ,lynx or other tools that can get web pages for you? If you can, use them. If not, what programming languages can you use? If you can use Python, here's a little something
Code:
import urllib2
url="http://www.yourwebpage.com"
page=urllib2.urlopen(url)
print page.read()

Hello ghostdog74,

I dont have anything like curl, wget or anything else installed. I want to pass the URL and get the page content. I can only use PERL or UNIX Shell Script. Please help...

Thanks,

Do you have LWP for Perl then? You can use it to get web pages. See here
