in reply to WWW::Mechanize can't log in using it

I've recently gotten into WWW::Mechanize... i would try this instead...

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use WWW::Mechanize; my $user= 'XXXX@spamgourmet.com'; my $password= 'XXXX'; #maybe need cookies? my $n=WWW::Mechanize->new(cookie_jar => {}); $n->get( q(http://www.nintendo-europe.com/NOE/de/DE/logout/index.jsp?D +PSLogout=true) ); $n->form_name('login'); $n->set_visible( $user, $password ); #specify form to submit $n->submit_form(form_name => 'login'); print $n->content()

just by quickly looking at it... set_visible might be your best bet since those fields don't have specific names. And as far as I can tell... those are the first two (non-hidden) fields in that form.

If it still doesn't work, try debugging by taking a look at $n->forms(). That should return an object of all of the form elements that mech sees and give you a better idea what to use for the fields. hope this helps.
