use HTTP/1.0 instead of HTTP/1.1 in WWW::Mechanize

perl_help26 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello, I would like to force "get" of package www::mechanize to use http/1.0 How can i do that ? My current code is:

my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
$mech->get ("$url");
[download]

It sounds easy but I can't seem to find the solution. Please help! Thanks

Solution:

use WWW::Mechanize;
require LWP::Protocol::http10;
LWP::Protocol::implementor('http', 'LWP::Protocol::http10');
