monks,

This is the first time I am trying some sample programs using WWW::Mechanize. I got this sample code from here 

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

    use WWW::Mechanize;
    use Data::Dumper;
    use Storable;

    $url = 'http://www.census.gov/population/www/documentation/twps002
+7.html';
    $m = WWW::Mechanize->new();
    $m->get($url);

    $c = $m->content;
    
    print Dumper [ $c ];

I got the below Error :- 
$VAR1 = [
          '500 Can\'t connect to www.census.gov:80 (connect: Unknown e
+rror)
'
        ];

[download]
But I could connect to the URL via web browser. Could anyone help me to resolve this issue ?



hmmm ....let me think what did I said
