Whoops, yes, sorry. The correct usage is

    $mech->sendkeys( string => "Hello World" );
[download]

... so I think that maybe the following could work:

    $mech->sendkeys( string => "\t" );
[download]

I don't know how many tabs you need to send, so maybe

    $mech->sendkeys( string => "\t\t" );
[download]

... works better.
