in reply to WWW::Mechanize::Firefox Random Errors with get() method

I got these errors with older versions of MozRepl::RemoteObject and WWW::Mechanize::Firefox when either too many events happened or when too many commands got sent. Upgrading both modules to their latest versions should help (and I think the problem is that WWW::Mechanize::Firefox currently has no prerequisite for MozRepl::RemoteObject v0.20).

I'm sorry for the negligence of not having bumped the MozRepl::RemoteObject prerequisite. Please tell me if upgrading it fixes things for you.

    Hey no problem, the tool is great as it is and I'm very thankful that it is available on CPAN! I upgraded MozRepl::RemoteObject to 0.20, and MozRepl itself is version 0.06. It definitely fixed those errors, though I'm getting something new now:

    Can't coerce array into hash at /Library/Perl/5.8.8/MozRepl/RemoteObject.pm line 729, <DATA> line 1.

    This is still while running my example code. How new are MozRepl packages as well as the WWW::Mechanize::Firefox? Is this software under active development? I may be interested in getting involved. The whole thing is pretty cool, how you install a plugin in Firefox and use the Perl library to talk to it. Thanks for your help!

        Awesome thanks so much! That cleared it right up, I'm up and running! The entire thing seems to run much better. Thanks!
