I'm trying to use WWW:Mechanize to no avail. I don't think it's working because it isn't a form that's submitting (at least I don't think it is...I'm not familiar with how to submit javascript forms?)

Here's the html for information I'm trying to submit and login with: 

   <tbody>
                                          <tr>
                                             <td colspan="2" id="login
+Error" class="loginErrorText" align="center">
                                             </td>
                                          </tr>
                                          <tr>
                                             <td width="37%" align="ri
+ght" class="loginText">
                                                Email:   
                                             </td>
                                             <td width="50%" align="le
+ft" class="loginTextInput">
                                                <input type="text" id=

                                             </td>
                                          </tr>
                                          <tr>
                                             <td align="right" class="

                                             <td align="left" class="l

And here's my script:

  use WWW::Mechanize;
  
print "Enter User ID: ";
$username = <>;
print "Enter Password: ";
$password = <>;

    my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
  


    $url = "http://www.draftstreet.com/default.aspx";
    print $url;
    $mech->get( $url );

   $mech->field(txtUserName,$username);
   $mech->field(txtPassword,$password);
