I am a new bee in Perl.
I am trying to download pdf file from UN website, using mechanize.
http://documents-dds-ny.un.org/doc/UNDOC/GEN/N08/588/39/pdf/N0858839.pdf?OpenElement
Please let me know more about html headers using mechanize.
use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP::Simple;
use WWW::Mechanize;
use Compress::Zlib;
# Create a new instance of WWW::Mechanize
my $mechanize = WWW::Mechanize->new(autocheck => 1);
$mechanize->cookie_jar(HTTP::Cookies->new);
my $url = 'http://documents-dds-ny.un.org/doc/UNDOC/GEN/N08/588/39/pdf
+/N0858839.pdf?OpenElement';
my $file = 'test.pdf';
#getstore($url,$file);
$mechanize->cookie_jar(HTTP::Cookies->new);
$mechanize->get($url);
my $response = $mechanize->response();
for my $key ( $response->header_field_names() ) {
print $key, " : ", $response->header( $key ), "\n";
}
my $dest = $mechanize->response->content;
if($mechanize->response->header("Content-Encoding") eq "gzip")
{
$dest = Compress::Zlib::memGunzip($dest);
$mechanize->update_html($dest);
}
$mechanize->get($url,":content_file" => $file);
print $mechanize->content();
