    Then you will need to inspect what ->content gives you and use regular expressions. The link methods of WWW::Mechanize do not deal with arbitrary (unlinked) URLs. They only extract certain tags.

    Take a look at HTML::Tree::Scanning. Using HTML::TreeBuilder and the look_down method mentioned in the article works well for me.
