Hi

I need to download the "URL" as HTML file. That url using credentials.
I have tried the WWW::Mechanize. but i cant get the content or am i doing anything wrong here.
Is there any other way to do that.
use WWW::Mechanize; my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new(); $url='http://*********/cgi-bin/avail.cgi?show_log_entries=&servicegrou +p=US-WEBSITES&timeperiod=last24hours&smon=7&sday=1&syear=2012&shour=0 +&smin=0&ssec=0&emon=7&eday=13&eyear=2012&ehour=24&emin=0&esec=0&rptti +meperiod=&assumeinitialstates=yes&assumestateretention=yes&assumestat +esduringnotru'; $username='*****'; $password='*****'; $mech->credentials($username, $password); $mech->get($url); print "\$mech";
