Re: using and debuging www Mechanize

You can give the name of the text boxes instead of

Username => 'someone',Password => 'pass'

For example if you have a text box like

<input id="USER_NAME" type="text" name="USER_NAME"/>
[download]

then you can to submit as follows

my $response=$mech->post($url,[ 'USER_NAME' => "testing"]);
                                      |
                                     \ /
                               name of the text box
[download]

Update: Changed "have and need" to can

You have to give the name of the text box. No, form_number is perfectly acceptable (see WWW::Mechanize). then you need to submit as follows Need? No. You may use post , or simply continue using submit_form.	[reply]
