I am processing a webpage with Perl using IO::All and the io($url) function.

The pages I am processing ostensibly have well formed URLs. e.g.

http://www.forbes.com/billionaires/list/#page:15_sort:0_direction:asc_
+search:_filter:All%20industries_filter:All%20countries_filter:All%20s
+tates

[download]

Note the #page:15_ portion of the url

When I view the source or print out the source return fromm io() I see names that appear on page 1 of the website, e.g.,

<!-- Start: list_row -->
<tr>
  <td class="rank">1</td>
  <td class="company">
    <a href="/profile/carlos-slim-helu/">
      <img src="http://i.forbesimg.com/media/lists/people/carlos-slim-
+helu_50x50.jpg" alt="">
      <h3>Carlos Slim Helu & family</h3>
    </a>
  </td>
  <td class="worth">$73 B</td>
  <td>73</td>
  <td>telecom</td>
  <td>Mexico</td>
</tr>

However, if I open the page up in developer tools in the browser and look through the object model (HTML tab in IE)I see the entries in the list for the people I expect to see on page 15 e.g.,

<TR>
  <TD class=rank>1342</TD>
  <TD class=company><A href="/profile/park-hyeon-joo/">
    <IMG alt="" src="http://i.forbesimg.com/media/lists/people/park-hy
+eon-joo_50x50.jpg"> 
    <H3>Park Hyeon-Joo</H3></A>
  </TD>
  <TD class=worth>$1 B</TD>
  <TD>54</TD>
  <TD>Mirae</TD>
  <TD>South Korea</TD>
</TR>

Can I get Perl to open the page and give me the right contents?

Someone suggested looking at Mechanize. I have looked at pQuery and Web::Query. The ->text methods just return the data from page 1, not page 15.

Is there a way to keep the url "alive" until it refeshes with the correct content?

Thanks in advance
