in reply to save http image data

Hi,

You want to use WWW::Mechanize (for https you will also need Crypt::SSLeay).
Read the documentation and also the WWW::Mechanize::Examples and WWW::Mechanize::Cookbook, as I recall there are examples of finding all the images on a site and downloading them.

Hope this helps.

Martin

    Thanks! The last version I used of WWW::Mechanize would not work, but this new version seems to do the trick.

    I still have one problem. The site I am attempting to access has as a javascript driven login script. I have a sort of hack solution to this by continuing to use follow_link method until I get a page that seems like the home page. Thee must be a way to automate this process and have the mechanize routine follow redirects until there is no more data to fetch. How can I accomplish this?

    thanks,
    Kevin
