in reply to WWW::Mechanize 1.04 for Windows

You may also find Win32::IE::Mechanize to be useful. It has nearly the same interface as WWW::Mechanize, but behind the scenes uses OLE to automate Internet Explorer.

    I'm afraid that the activeperl windows distribution does not "support" IE::Mechnize (or a more recent WWW::Mechanize version). That seems to be the problem. But thanks for the hint.

      As ]dws] already detailed, you can install WWW::Mechanize manually by the process he described. Another process would be to:

      1. Download nmake.exe from Microsoft
      2. Unpack the archive
      3. Copy all files from the archive into the same directory that Perl resides in
      4. Open a command prompt
      5. Type perl -MCPAN -e "install 'WWW::Mechanize'"
        6. into it
      6. Press Enter
      7. Press Enter if CPAN wants to configure itself, accept all defaults
      8. Done
