Re^2: PHP Sessions and Perl

Hi Hippo,

When I print the content of my $mech I get the below only, nothing relating the session or cookies. Is this maybe because the login page calls a different page to authenticate and assign the session info?

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
        <head>
                <meta charset="utf-8">
                <title>Login</title>
                <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://use.fontawesome.c
+om/releases/v5.7.1/css/all.css">
    <link href="lib/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
        </head>
        <body>
                <div class="login">
                        <h1>Login</h1>
                        <form action="authenticate.php" name="login" m
+ethod="post">
                                <label for="username">
                                        <i class="fas fa-user"></i>
                                </label>
                                <input type="text" name="username" pla
+ceholder="Username" id="username" required>
                                <label for="password">
                                        <i class="fas fa-lock"></i>
                                </label>
                                <input type="password" name="password"
+ placeholder="Password" id="password" required>
                                <input type="submit" value="Login" nam

When I print the content of my $mech I get the below only, nothing relating the session or cookies. Set cookies are not returned in the content. They are returned in the response headers. `use strict; use warnings; use WWW::Mechanize; use Data::Dumper; my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new; my $response = $mech->get ('http://your.url.here/'); print Dumper ($response->headers->{'set-cookie'});` [download] 🦛	[reply] [d/l]
