Ikegami,
Thanks for the response that does look like its in the right neck of the woods. Would you be able to explain why Win32::IE::Mechanize would address my issue in comparison with WWW::Mechanize?
Win32::IE::Mechanize requires libwin32 which does not seem trivial to install at all and it sounds like it requires a windows C/C++ compiler to make some of the dependancies.

Regards Paul

    WWW::Mechanize adds HTML parsing to LWP's understanding of HTTP. Neither understands JavaScript. Win32::IE::Mechanize, on the other hand, is an interface to Internet Explorer. It asks IE to fetch a page and process it, including any JavaScript in it.

    Do a search of this site for Mechanize and/or JavaScript to read more on the subject.

      Thanks again Ikegami,
      Took me a few hours, but its all working with Win32::IE::Mechanize now.... very nice =P

      Regards Paul.
