Hey guys, I'm scrapping this site and am looking for code examples to help me figure out how to retrieve the information inside of this JSP control (it's a lot harder then with regular text!). I don't seem to be finding anything with the HTTP headers, I've super searched and googled. I look forward to an updated webspidering book with modern AJAX/JSP control scenarios to learn from ;D Here's my code so far 
use WWW::Mechanize;
use HTML::TokeParser;
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
my $stream = HTML::TokeParser->new(\$html);

$url = "http://students.yale.edu/oci/search.jsp";

$mech->get($url);
$html = $mech->content();

while(my $token = $stream->get_token()){
    if($token->[1] eq "options"){
        print $stream->get_text."\n";
        }
}
