coder57, First off, just out of curiosity, do you also post under the user name coder45? The reason I ask is that your usernames are similar, and coder45 asked many questions along the same lines as this one.
Yes I am one and the same, haven't logged on for a while, hence created a new name, glad you remember me.
Secondly if you read the WWW::Mechanize documentation you would find: "Please note that Mech does NOT support JavaScript. Please check the FAQ in WWW::Mechanize::FAQ for more."...Since you say it is your site, you may not have too much trouble writing a Perl work around to emulate your JavaScript code you have chosen to use
Where can I find such perl snippets that work around javascript?
"and there are 3 pages, I would like to edit the articles on the first page with the same text in $text, and the the next three articles on the next page with the text in $text2, and the next three articles on the last page with $text3" To me this does not make sense, why would each page have three articles that contain exactly the same text? Also you have the line use Data::Dumper; but you don't use it in your code that you have posted. Martin
I meant text links with Article1...Article2...Article3,
Also you have the line use Data::Dumper; but you don't use it in your code that you have posted.
I like to use old code, and keep what didn't bail out on me
