in thread Mechanize https proxy not working

The same code works with any http link, but doesn't work with an https link

Tried with another https link and the same result

Error GETing https://www.guardiananytime.com/: Bad Request at test.pl line 9

    1) turn on debugging 2) do you know if your proxy supports https?

    I don't know what is causing your problem. I'd use a different module to get the https link. Something like IO::All::HTTPS
    #!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use IO::All;

my $content < io('https://www.guardiananytime.com');
print $content, "\n";
