Re^4: Weird date format behavior with WWW::Mechanize

Thanks, I'm impressed. I had never noticed you can look inside the js source code before. I'm still confused about how Mechanize would be getting the munged date but a normal browser wouldn't, but regardless, the solution lies in the formatting.

I'm still confused about how Mechanize would be getting the munged date but a normal browser wouldn't Because a browser can run JavaScript, and WWW::Mechanize can't (update: though other modules can, e.g. JavaScript::SpiderMonkey - as suggested by Fletch). Anyway, it's the (JavaScript in the) browser that is munging the date, not WWW::Mech.	[reply]
