WWW::Mechanize get($variable)

[jonnyfolk]

Having picked up the content of a web page in a previous subroutine I would like to do some work on it using Mechanize, however I can't see how to get the contents of the variable: $contains_html into Mechanize. I can easily print a temporary file and use the url to do this, but that seems a clumsy extra step to me.

Any suggestions?

See the update_html method. The example that comes with it does exactly what you want.
