mechanize version 2.5.1 has been released! * <http://mechanize.rubyforge.org> * <https://github.com/tenderlove/mechanize> The Mechanize library is used for automating interaction with websites. Mechanize automatically stores and sends cookies, follows redirects, and can follow links and submit forms. Form fields can be populated and submitted. Mechanize also keeps track of the sites that you have visited as a history. Changes: * Bug fix * Mechanize no longer copies POST requests during a redirect which was introduced by #215. Pull request #229 by Godfrey Chan.
Does this handle js better than older versions?

Execution of JavaScript requires a JavaScript interpreter and DOM implementation atop Nokogiri, both of which are beyond the scope of mechanize.
cool, thanks! I''m trying to scrape a page that requires login, and then clicking on form check boxes and then hitting search. I managed to get this far with mechanize but the search results I get are garbage (not what I get when I do the same with a browser), so I was grasping at straws that it was a js script not being executed problem, but I really don''t know. Looking into other options but realy nothing I found was as easy or nice to use as mechanize. If it''s not too much trouble, any hints are appreciated... to re-woord my problem, search results are not as expected, even wrong page is being returned from what I can tell. This is my script: require ''nokogiri'' require ''mechanize'' agent = Mechanize.new agent.follow_meta_refresh = true agent.user_agent_alias = ''Mac Safari'' page = agent.get(''http://connect.raps.org/RAPS/Directory/AdvancedSearch/'') login_form = page.form() login_form.LoginTextBox = ''alexa coppola'' login_form.PasswordTextBox = ''goodfriend123'' page = agent.submit(login_form, login_form.buttons.first) agent.follow_meta_refresh = false search_form = page.form() search_form.checkbox_with(:name => ''ctl00$MainCopy$ctl08$DemographicsList$0'').check page = agent.submit(search_form, search_form.buttons.first) # returns different page than expected, not search results.

You can use browser debugging tools to compare what query a browser makes with what query mechanize makes (through use of the debugger). PS: This is a public list so you will want to change the password.

I don''t think you understand how a mailing list works. Basically you just sent an *email* out to hundreds of email addresses. So the short answer is, no.

The cat''s shredded the bag. it''s out. I''m a scrupulous security professional, but like he said, it''s a public list. You can guarantee that somebody on the list is using your access already and exploring what a raps.org is. If what it is needs to be secure then you need to be hurrying with your password change. You''re not getting out of it. If you''ve messed up then you admit your mistake and work to correct it. as a hiring/firing manager I can say: Do that and everything goes well, try to cover it up and get your poop smelled later and it''s likely you''re fired.
