( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I'm using Mojo::UserAgent to access the form here. But rather than an html button, the form submission widget is wired to some javascript like so:

<div class="btn1" id="VALIDBTN" onclick="validate()">Submit</div>

intending to trigger this code:

function validate(){
	submitFlag = true;
	validateFirstName();
	validateLastName();
	validateTown();
	validateDOB();
	if(submitFlag){
		$('#form1').attr('method', 'POST');
		$('#form1').attr('action', '/MVP/voterDetails.do');
		$('#currentSearch').val("1");
		$('#countyName').val($("#county").find("option:selected").text());
		submitForm();		
	}else{
		return false;
	}
}

So far, what I have looks like this:

sub validate_signature {
  my $signature = shift;
  my $base_url = 'https://www.mvp.sos.ga.gov/MVP/mvp.do';
  my %data = (
        firstName => $signature->{'sig_fname'},
         lastName => $signature->{'sig_lname'},
           county => $signature->{'sig_county'},
              dob => $signature->{'sig_dob'},
    currentSearch => 1,
  );
  my $tx = $ua->get( $base_url => \%data );
  print Dumper $tx;
}

Attempts to POST this data yield: "405 - HTTP verb used to access this page is not allowed." and my GET requests get the html of the form, not the results of the javascript function and its POST back to its source.

Curious to know if there is a way to trigger this onclick somehow. Joel Berger's Mojo::Phantom looks interesting and useful but does not seem to do quite what I'm looking for. Any ideas would be welcome.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
