Esteemed monks,
When using WWW::Mechanize to automate the use of a form whose method is POST I get the following error from whichever line submits the form:

Error POSTing http://www.auduboninstitute.org/test/next.html: Method Not Allowed at ./mech.pl line 26

I have tried using $mech->submit(); and $mech->click(); and get the same results. The CPAN documentation doesn't mention POST at all so I assume it is possible to make this work...

# Tried this first
$mech->submit_form(
     form_number => 0, 
     fields      => {
        login    => 'myName',
        password    => 'sumPass'
    }
);

# Also tried
$mech->set_visible( $login, $password );
$mech->submit();

# And this
$mech->set_visible( $login, $password );
$mech->click();

Any advice?

TIA,
