Hi,

i want to connect this page http://www.inchem.org/pages/cicads.html and to fill in the single text field (eg. 50-00-0) then follow the link and save the resulting page.
$mech->get($url); if ( $mech->success() ) { $mech->form_name( 'searchform' ); $mech->set_fields( QueryText => '50-00-0' ); #$mech->set_visible( '50-00-0' ); $mech->submit(); }
But I always get a html site that states

Error: Failed to obtain serverspec. Unable to determine the serverSpec from the environment variable VERITY_K2_HOSTPORT. Please set this env variable to point to the proper K2 Broker/Server serverspec.

Could you give me a hint? Thank you very much.
