in thread Help with javascript navigation

Ive tried setting the __EVENTTARGET and am still getting the warning. I have changed the link number to vary the results with no luck. Here is my code
use strict; use WWW::Mechanize; use Time::Local; use POSIX 'strftime'; use HTML::Strip; my($url) = 'http://www.usgbc.org/LEED/Project/RegisteredProjectList.as +px?CMSPageID=243&CategoryID=19&'; my($pageCheck) = ""; my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new(autocheck =>1); my($dirname) = "C:\\Program Files\\Perl Express\\Scripts\\"; my($fname) = "output.txt"; my($x) = 0; open(OUT , ">$dirname$fname") || die "Cant open file"; #initialization to strip HTML from document my $hs = HTML::Strip->new(); $mech->agent_alias('Linux Mozilla'); $mech->get($url) or die "Page $url can't be reached"; print "Made it past the url test\n"; my($form) = $mech->forms(); #selects all options from the lstLeedRating Field my $menu = $form->find_input("lstLeedRating"); #clicks the BtnSearch $pageCheck = $mech->click_button(name => "btnSearch"); my $pageCheck2 = ""; $pageCheck2 = $mech -> submit_form( with_fields => { '__EVENTTARGET' => 'dgRegProjectList:_ctl29:_ctl7', }, ); if($pageCheck2->is_success){ print $pageCheck2->content; #print $pageCheck->content; } else { print STDERR $pageCheck2->status_line, "\n"; die "Page with those fields not found!"; } my $page = $mech->content; my $clean_text = $hs->parse( $page ); $hs->eof; $clean_text =~s/.*(multiple LEED Rating Systems)//s; my @lines = split /\n/, $clean_text; for (@lines){ s/^\s+//; s/\s+$//; s/\s+/ /g; } $clean_text =~s/(2  3  4).*//s; my @lines2 = split /\n/, $clean_text; for (@lines2){ s/^\s+//; s/\s+$//; s/\s+/ /g; } my $clean = join "\n", @lines2; print OUT $clean; close OUT;
I have a feeling it has somethign to do with there call to the __doPostBack
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) { var theform; if (window.navigator.appName.toLowerCase().indexOf("microsoft" +) > -1) { theform = document.frmRegisteredProjectList; } else { theform = document.forms["frmRegisteredProjectList"]; } theform.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget.split("$").join(":") +; theform.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument; theform.submit(); } // --> </script>
Let me know what you think, and thanks in advance!

    I have a feeling it has somethign to do with youre not reading neither almut's reply nor HTML::Form. At least, I see no trace of either in the code you posted now. So, how about telling us where/how you incorporated almut's reply into your code?

    Let me know what you think, and thanks in advance!

      Guess i dont really see how that differs from the way I was setting the value and getting a simular warning with inaccurate results.
