Re^2: WWW::Mechanize and input type=image

Thanks Steves. I have 2 follow-up questions.

1. How do I find out the co-ordinates, as there are many other "image buttons" in the same page.

Here is the expanded piece of HTML for clarity:

    <tr>
        <td bgcolor="white"><img height="1" width="1" src="px.gif"></t
+d>
        <td bgcolor="white" colspan="2"><input type="password" name="h
+tmPassword" size="10" class="rtnavinput"></td>
        <td bgcolor="white"><input type=image src="/images/btnGoRed.gi
+f" width="15" height="15" border="0"></td>
        <td bgcolor="white"><img height="1" width="1" src="px.gif"></t
+d>
    </tr>
[download]

2. The syntax for "click" with coordinates is : $mech->click( $button [, $x, $y] ) What should I set $button to? There is no button name in the code.

I created this HTML: `<form action="test.cgi" method="GET"> <tr> <td bgcolor="white"><img height="1" width="1" src="px. +gif"></td> <td bgcolor="white" colspan="2"><input type="password" + name="htmPassword" size="10" class="rtnavinput"></td> <td bgcolor="white"><input type=image src="/images/btn +GoRed.gif" width="15" height="15" border="0"></td> <td bgcolor="white"><img height="1" width="1" src="px. +gif"></td> </tr> </form>` [download] to see what gets sent. It fetches: `.../test.cgi?htmPassword=&x=8&y=10` [download] So maybe you need to do something like this: `$mech->set_fields(x => 1, y => 1); $mech->submit();` [download] The script probably doesn't attention to the x and y, in which case you could do simply: `$mech->submit();` [download] (Untested, and I'd never used WWW::Mechanize.)

Thanks for your input. However, a simple `submit` or `submit_form` is not working. FYI, there are several forms in the same page.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
