I'll second that emotion. HTTP::Recorder is a wonderfully handy interface for WWW::Mechanize scripts. Here's a link to the article itself:

http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2004/06/04/recorder.html

As the article points out, you may have some difficulty if you are using SSL to access this page. In that circumstance, you'll have to go through the HTTP::Recorder control panel, not just through the proxy.

I've used this set-up several times, and it's fast, and easy.

    This is great and I'll be trying it tonight. I just wish I would be able to have a macro function from within Firefox. Just select "record actions". Run through the actions on the website and save it.

    WOW.
    I am consistently surprised with just how many cool things I'm exposed to on this site. The link to the perl.com article is something that will scratch a particular itch I've had for a while.
    Thank you.


    Very funny Scotty... Now PLEASE beam down my PANTS!
