Re^4: WWW::Mechanize can't GET; no helpful error message comes back

it worked for me doing this:

use WWW::Mechanize;

my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
$mech->get ('http://google.com');
my $content = $mech->content;
print $content;
[download]

I don't think it is necessary to put the 'or die "Can't create mech" part? Also,I have a brief tutorial that I have requested for comment using WWW::Mechanize that is in the meditations section

That doesn't fix anything if a proxy is involved. See the LWP::UserAgent proxy() and env_proxy() methods.	[reply]
