Re^10: Correct link to put in my WWW:Mechanize

WWW::Mechanize shows everything in the synopsis.

adjust this

use WWW::Mechanize ();
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
 
$mech->get( $url );   # the address in your browser

 
$mech->submit_form(
    form_name => 'search',                         # the form name in 
+the code
    fields    => { query  => 'pot of gold', },     # parameters
    button    => 'Search Now'                      # button
);

I'm AFK now, TTYL.

Hi Rolf, many thanks for trying to help out and apologies if I seem to not get it... I tried your code (which I think is pretty much what I have now), and the error still the same. use WWW::Mechanize(); while(<>) { if($_=~/^>(.*)/) { my $id=$1; my $seq=<>; chomp $seq; print "$id\n"; my $url = 'http://www.csbio.sjtu.edu.cn/bioinf/MemBrain/'; #what + I see in the browser, as you said my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new(); $mech->get($url); $mech->submit_form ( form_name => 'myform', fields => { #textarea name \| value S1 => ">$id\n$seq", #Radio button one with value (parameter 1) R4 => 'TOPpre', #Radio button one with value (parameter 2) R2 => 'SignalYES', #Radio button one with value (parameter 3) R3 => 'Human', #Fill in email (parameter 4) email => 'myemail@gmail.com' } ); } } [download] The code executes until I print the `id` and then exits, with the error that I have posted earlier. I specified the `form_name` too, but nothing...	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You didn't provide a SSCCE because your input is read manually. My guess is that your data is wrong. I also get an error with random data. So please test the validity on the website manually. And try to disable JS in your browser to see if it's needed. WWW::Mechanize can't do JS. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]
