Re^2: WWW::Mechanize click

That's interesting. Does Mechanize support Javascript? I looked through the docs quickly and didn't see anything.

Then you didn't read the WWW::Mechanize::FAQ -- it's probably the most amusing Perl FAQ I've ever read. And apparently people *still* write to Andy asking about JavaScript support. I managed to squirm around that challenge by using Test::WWW:Mechanize on my CGI::Application web application in which I use a few bits of JavaScript -- mostly to pop-up alerts that say "Are you sure?" to confirm various delete operations.

Seems to work fine.

talexb, When I mentioned WWW::Mechanize::Plugin::JavaScript to Andy the other night on #perl (freenode), he was unaware of its existance. Hopefully the module author will continue to work on it because it would make a lot of people happy. Cheers - L~R	[reply]
