in thread WWW::Mechanize::Chrome : gets stuck sometimes

excellent catch. I did indeed see a  Page.navigatedWithinDocument error being reported but forgot to mention it ... the heat.

WWW::Mechanize::Chrome is at version 0.17, google-chrome is Version 68.0.3440.75 (Official Build) (64-bit) and it is run under linux fedora 27 latest kernels and all, perl is at v5.26.2.

Unrelated: what is the proper way to shutdown the client and make sure that no "chrome" process is still running? And how do I reset cookies? Is there a WWW::Mechanize::Chrome forum where I can post these questions without pestering you here or shall I post another question?

thanks, bliako

    https://perlmonks.org is the correct "forum" to use for support and bug reports. This should also be noted somewhere in the documentation.

    The interface for cookies is fairly rudimentary so far, but if you use a private Chrome instance with its own profile, you'll get a fresh/empty cookie jar every time.

    The proper way to shutdown your Chrome instance is to let the WWW::Mechanize::Chrome object go out of scope. That should clean up the Chrome process associated with it. But maintaining that is a constant battle against circular references.

      OK thanks.
