Does it matter that the link I'm trying to capture from the page with my script resides inside of an iframe? It looks like this in firebug:

<iframe id="iframe_canvas" class="smart_sizing_iframe" scrolling="yes" + height="800" frameborder="0" msallowfullscreen="" oallowfullscreen=" +" mozallowfullscreen="" webkitallowfullscreen="" src="javascript:""" +name="iframe_canvas_fb_https" style="height: 472px;"> <html> <head> <body> <div> <a href="link I'm trying to capture"</a> </div> </body> </head> </html> </iframe>

I already have this in my perl code:

$mech->allow(plugins => 1, javascript => 1, metaredirects => 1, frames + => 1, subframes => 1, images => 1);

So it seems like all iframes should be processed correctly, right?
