Mechanize users - Aug 2012 - [Question] my script with mechanize doesn't fill password field for login

I''m Takahiro.

My environment is as follows:

yama at roswell:~/tmp$ uname -a
Linux roswell 3.0.0-12-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 7 14:50:42 UTC 2011 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux
yama at roswell:~/tmp$ ruby --version
ruby 1.8.7 (2011-06-30 patchlevel 352) [i686-linux]

mechanize v2.5.1-9

I''m trying to login
<https://ssl.naver.jp/login?fromUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fndrive.naver.jp%2F>
with mechanize.

I wrote the script for it.

My script puts email field with value "tako" I specified,but
doesn''t
put password I specified.

The following is a snip of my script outputs.

# this puts out as follows:
#<div class="mdInputTxt03Inner mdInputTxt03UserName"><input
type="text" class="mdInputTxt03Input hasPlaceholder"
value="tako" id="_email" name="email"
tabindex="1"></div>

"tako" is specified for email field in scipt is found.

#<div class="mdInputTxt03Inner mdInputTxt03Password"><input
type="password" class="mdInputTxt03Input hasPlaceholder"
value="" id="_passwd" name="password"
maxlength="20" tabindex="2"></div>

password vailue is "".

Could you tell me what points are wrong?

Here is my script.

yama at roswell:~/tmp$ cat ndrive.rb
#! /usr/bin/ruby

# reference http://q.hatena.ne.jp/1213335523#a834923

require ''rubygems''
require ''mechanize''

agent = Mechanize.new

# NAVER URL
page =
agent.get(''https://ssl.naver.jp/login?fromUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fndrive.naver.jp%2F'')

# print form
form = page.forms.first

#form.fields.each { |f| puts f.name }
# this puts out as follows:
#rsaKeyName
#fromUrl
#encryptedLoginParam
#enc
#email
#password

# set for login authentication
form[''email'']    = "tako"
form[''password''] = "xxxx"

# submit
form.submit

#puts page.body
puts agent.page.body
