PERL LWP and Frame Support

webmonman has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am trying to pull the contents of a Web Site using LWP Agent that requires a "frame supported browser". I have pushed all of the header info that a netscape browser pushes but cannot find the key. The site is https so debugging is tricky at best. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Randy

Have you looked at the page you retrieved? A page containing `frame` tags just links to the frames which are separate pages. You will have to request these pages separately then. I'm also not sure why you think that HTTPS makes debugging more tricky than debugging normal HTTP, but maybe you can show us some of the code you already wrote.	[reply] [d/l]

Can't you do something as simple as view the page source (in your web browser) to find out the urls of the frames and deal with it that way? Martin	[reply]
