Hi
all of a sudden I have a strange problem with WWW::Mechanize that I've boiled down to this:
use WWW::Mechanize();
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new;
$mech->agent_alias( 'Linux Mozilla' );
my $url = "http://www.economist.com/news/world-week/21716670-politics-
+week/print";
$mech->get($url, ":content_file" => "output.html");
What happens is that the output file contains only part of the expected content (a fragment of an html-document that looks as if it is truncated somewhere).
wget has no problems to download the url correctly.
What could be the issue here?
Many thanks!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
