Dear Master Monks,

I have a form that has this on it: 

<input type=image src="/images/buttons/login.gif" alt="Login">

[download]
which is the only thing to click. How can I get Mech to submit the form?

mech-dump gives: 

  login=                         (text)
  pass=                          (password)
  secure_login=0                 (radio) [1/SSL |*0/Non-SSL]
  <NONAME>=<UNDEF>               (image)

So far I have: 

# Fields to fill out, since there is only one button,
# try to let Mech find it
$mech->submit_form(
        form_name => 'loginForm',
        fields => {
                    login => $user,
                    pass => $passwd,
                    secure_login => '0',
                  },
)->is_success() || die "Unable to login to $login_page, stopped";

# Ensure we've logged in successfully
my $logout = $mech->find_link( text => "Logout" );

die "Did not log in, stopped" unless $logout;

Now I get the message about "Did not log in", so maybe my find_link() is incorrect?

In the click(), it says: 

If there is only one button on the form, $mech->click() with no argume
+nts simply clicks that one button.

So that's what I have done. Is that right?
