in reply to LWP UserAgent's agent method and browser check

LWP doesn't support JavaScript. If you're trying to automate a site which requires JavaScript see WWW::Mechanize::Firefox or do some network probing to find out what headers the browser sends and compare it to what your Perl code is sending.

    Thanks marto, corion. Unfortunately coding PERL to replicate headers sent by my brower would be too big a challenge for me with my present skills. So I'll try Mechanize for the time being and see if that suits this task. Thanks again.
