HTTP::Request error with query string

I'm having an error with HTTP::Request in perl, where it wont post with the quesry string as shown bellow:

$request = HTTP::Request->new(POST => "http://example.com/file.pl?query=blablabla");

 $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
 $response = $ua->request($request);

It's not sending the post with "?query=blablabla" rather only sending the post to "http://example.com/file.pl" instead of http://example.com/file.pl?query=blablabla

This should work.

$param = "query=blablabla";
$req = HTTP::Request->new(POST => $url);
$req->content($param);

$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$res = $ua->request($req);

Also you can add headers to your request like this:

$req->header('Accept-Encoding' => "gzip,deflate");
$req->header('Accept-Charset' => "ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7");
