Cookiejar for www::mechanize

[Agyeya]

Greetings Monks!
I have searched high and low, but am not able to figure out the code to create a cookiejar for www::mechanize. I checked the CPAN documentation of WWW::Mechanize(could not understand how to create cookie jar)
Then I went to PerlDoc. There searching for www::mechanize did not turn up any results. Though, a search for "cookies" did turn up two pages of hits, but none related to www::mechanize.
I did find the code to create for LWP::UserAgent, but couldnt make that work for WWW::Mechanize

If someone would be so kind as to point me to a link for the code to create a cookiejar for www::mechanize, I shall be highly obliged
Eagerly awaiting a reply

You can create an in-memory cookie jar using the constructor of WWW::Mechanize. Using an existing cookie jar, you can use the HTTP::Cookies module. The file format this module uses is different from, for example, Mozilla. You can use HTTP::Cookies::Netscape or HTTP::Cookies::Explorer to read these browser-specific files.

Using an existing file of cookies with WWW::Mechanize can be done as follows:

...
my $agent = WWW::Mechanize->new();
my $cj = HTTP::Cookies->new(file => "/file/to/cookie_jar");
$agent->cookie_jar($cj);
...

(Substitute HTTP::Cookies::Netscape or HTTP::Cookies::Explorer to use a cookie file from those browsers.

use WWW::Mechanize;
use HTTP::Cookies;
my $agent = WWW::Mechanize->new();
$agent->cookie_jar(HTTP::Cookies->new);

WOW!!! It would appear you don't know How to RTFM, so I suggest you visit Tutorials and read the tutorial that teaches you how.

`perldoc WWW::Mechanize':

...
Constructor and startup
  new()

    Creates and returns a new WWW::Mechanize object, hereafter referre
+d to
    as the 'agent'.

        my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new()

    The constructor for WWW::Mechanize overrides two of the parms to t
+he
    LWP::UserAgent constructor:

        agent => "WWW-Mechanize/#.##"
        cookie_jar => {}    # an empty, memory-only HTTP::Cookies obje
+ct
...

update: Apparently, your problem is you don't understand English very well. You should try getting a translator.

use WWW::Mechanize;
my $mechanize_with_a_memory_only_cookie_jar = WWW::Mechanize->new ( co
+okie_jar => {} );

update: By the way, that's the same as writing my $mechanize_with_a_memory_only_cookie_jar = WWW::Mechanize->new(); (that's the default).
