in thread can't get WWW::Mechanize to sign in on JustAnswer

The Firefox browser supports javascript.

LiveHttpHeaders addon shows you the HTTP Request that gets sent so you don't have to reverse-engineer the javascript.

Then simply get Mechanize to send the same HTTP Request, either through Mechanize calls, or by crafting a custom HTTP::Request.

Or simply use WWW::Mechanize::Firefox.

No, these instructions are not a solution to the OPs exact problem (not a fish), instead, they're the solution to every such problem (instructions on how to fish).

Like Corion says, javascript is not magical
