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

I am using WWW::Mechanize::PhantomJS to automate a file download. A zip file is downloaded after clicking on some link on website.

 $mech->click(

{xpath=>'//*[@src="../WRQualtricsControlPanel/CPGraphics/ExportCSV.135
+4750.gif"]',synchronize => 0},
{xpath=>'//*[@onclick="Qualtrics.DownloadData.exportData(event, \'CSV\
+')"]'}
);

[download]

manually clicking on the link on browser starts file download. How can I get this file downloaded and stored in some location with script?

    Does the content method work? What does phantomjs.org say about how it handles file downloads?
[reply]
      'content' is providing source of the page. i used as print $mech->content(); And about handling download I read some articles that show its possible with phantomjs but examples are given in .js. The documentation of WWW::Mechanize::PhantomJS does not state any particular method of handling file downloads.
