I'm writing a script that logs on to a website, does some navigation, clicks on a button that generates and then downloads a CSV, and I'm wondering if the add_handler method will do what I need to capture this CSV. I had a look on WWW::Mechanize, but didn't see any information on this method.

Right now I'm calling the content method after the click, and that just gives me the web page and not the CSV that arrives a few seconds later. Is there more information about this method?
