in reply to Retrieving data from web where Javascript is included

First of all please read How do I post a question effectively? and Writeup Formatting Tips.

Secondly this questions gets asked every so often (did you Super Search before posting?), LWP and WWW::Mechanize do not support JavaScript. You can either reverse engineer the JavaScript within you Perl code (where possible) or use Win32::IE::Mechanize or Mozilla::Mechanize.

    Thanks for the response. Right now I am using perl v5.6.1. It is asking for v5.8.0 can you suggest me in this?
      Did you read my previous post, I mentioned reading How do I post a question effectively?. With that in mind you say, "It is asking for v5.8.0", what is "It"? Also Perl 5.6.1 is pretty old, have you considered installing a modern version of perl (perhaps to a different path, as the 5.6.1 version may be being used by your OS).?
