    The WMC works interactively with the chrome browser. The login info is loaded from the cookie and the target page is reached.

      I also wonder why this code in WMC 
      
my $file_map = $mech->saveResources_future(
    target_file => 'this_page.html',
    target_dir  => 'this_page_files/',
    wanted      => sub { $_[0]->{url} =~ m!^https?:!i },
)->get();

      downloads the files in these two links 
      
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/file.css" type="text/css" />
<img id="logo" src="/images/image.gif" alt="" title="" />

      But not this one 
      
<a class="txt" href="file.txt"> Text File </a>

        The latter is a hyperlink to another page/resource, you would never want the 'Save Complete page' method to follow links like that, it's not what it's for. Saving the same page in a browser will not save hyperlink targets.

      Heh. You said this is busted 
       WWW::Mechanize->new( 
     cookie_jar => $cookie_jar,
    );

      you said its not picking up cookie and sending it. But the code does no checking of sent cookies. So how?
