in reply to WWW::Mechanize wrong month

Perl Month numbers from 'localtime' etc are ZERO based.

This syntax: 

 ($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year, $wday, $yday) = POSIX::strpti
+me(string, format);

[download]
returns values similar to localtime(), which uses zero-based months.

$mday is the day of the month and $mon the month in the range 0..11, with 0 indicating January and 11 indicating December. This makes it easy to get a month name from a list:
