WWW::Mechanize::FAQ package offers a sum of Frequently Asked Questions about WWW::Mechanize. WWW::Mechanize::FAQ package offers a sum of Frequently Asked Questions about WWW::Mechanize.From the FAQ...I have this web page that has JavaScript on it, and my Mech program doesn't work.That's because WWW::Mechanize doesn't operate on the JavaScript. It only understands the HTML parts of the page.I thought Mech was supposed to work like a web browser.It does pretty much, but it doesn't support JavaScript.I added some basic attempts at picking up URLs in window.open() calls and return them in $mech->links. They work sometimes. Beyond that, there's no support for JavaScript.Are you going to add JavaScript support?I will if anyone sends me the code to do it. I'm not going to write a JavaScript processor myself.Wouldn't that be a great thing to have in WWW::Mechanize?Yes.Would it be hard to do?Hard enough that I don't want to deal with it myself. Plus, I don't use JavaScript myself, so I don't have an itch to scratch.Is anyone working on it?I've heard noises from people every so often over the past couple of years, but nothing you'd pin your hopes on.It would really help me with a project I'm working on.I'm sure it would.Do you know when it might get added?I have no idea if or when such a thing will ever get done. I can guarantee that as soon as there's anything close to JavaScript support I will let everyone know.Maybe I'll ask around and see if anyone else knows of a solution.If you must, but I doubt that anyone's written JavaScript support for Mechanize and neglected to tell me about it.
