found solution by editing the the win32::IEAutomaiton module. addeded the below.

sub getLink2{ my ($self, $how, $what) = @_; my $agent = $self->{agent}; #my $links = $agent->Document->links; my $links = $agent->Document->all->tags("a"); my $target_link = __getObject($links, $how, $what) if ($links); my $link_object; if ($target_link){ $link_object = Win32::IEAutomation::Element->new(); $link_object->{element} = $target_link; $link_object->{parent} = $self; }else{ $link_object = undef; print "WARNING: No link is present in the document with your +specified option $how $what\n" if $warn; } return $link_object; }

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
