Trying to submit a form is resulting in the following error: >> page = agent.submit(f, f.buttons.first) query: "action=start&quick=Y&clientApp=0&clientID=MCO" Net::HTTP::Post: /dealerApply/controller.jsp using cookie: JSESSIONID=GJ4NCvGJDTlrvrKsLw17hZ3FnlXFdVkvB5hh1jLkHKcH4Tn27371!-538794652 request-header: accept-language => en-us,en;q0.5 request-header: connection

I have a site that I don''t think "returns" a basic_auth request, but is able to use basic_auth. In the past on 0.6.8, I could use the following code: require ''rubygems'' # gem ''mechanize'', ''=0.6.8'' require ''mechanize'' agent = WWW::Mechanize.new agent.basic_auth("username", "password")

I''m trying to use mechanize against a site that has four fields in the form. However, those four fields have to be filled in order. So putting something in field one, populates the second field drop down. So I''m thinking that I''ll probably have to call the page multiple times? What sort of things should I be doing to figure out how to interact with this page.

Hello, I''m having trouble using mechanise to post a form. I took a wireshark capture of the form being submitted by firefox and by mechanise. In both there is an HTTP Post and then a ''continuation of non-http traffic'' packet. The obvious difference is that the firefox continuation packet has some http metadata (I don''t know the proper terminology) where the

Hi, I''m working to scrape and save some ebooks. Mechanize has been wonderful so far. The link I''m having trouble with is this one. http://www.webscription.net/SendZip.aspx?SKU=0671578499&ProductID=379&format=H When I click that in the browser it saves it to a file named H_1632.zip. How do I get that name from the page. I suspect to save this to a file I would just do

hello, I am trying to implement a "remember be" box for logins, however I cant seem to get it to work. I have tried the following 2 methods but neither seem to work. When i check the expiry time in firefox it always says "end of session". What is the proper way to handle this so the session cookie "_session_id" doesnt expire for a year? I tried

Heyas :) I''m wondering how do I do to send my custom HTTP headers when posting a form. agent.set_headers is a private method and I don''t know how to get a reference to HTTPHeaders to use add_field and such. Since my request is a form, I''m sending it using agent.submit(form). Any hints? Bonus question: I would like to upload a file to a REST webservice, but I

Hello people! I'm developing a Java Ogg media player applet and I have encountered a problem while creating a progress bar. I need to know how long, in samples or seconds, the Ogg stream that I'm playing is, and I need to know it before I have downloaded the entire stream. Problem is, I don't see how I could do that. I could provide a "duration" argument, but that would

How do you make get the page when using basic_auth? Below is code, I am getting a 401 error. I am not sure if the basic _auth comes before the agent.get. I will appreciate any help. require ''mechanize'' require ''logger'' agent = WWW::Mechanize.new {|a| a.log = Logger.new(STDERR) } page = agent.get(''https://brewx.qualcomm.com/developer'' )

I''d like to implement output compression in Mongrel (ala Apache''s mod_deflate). I have found a Rails plugin that, with minor modification, works. Is there even an advantage to moving the output compression from the Rails app to a Mongrel handler? Unless, of course, someone knows how to configure mod_proxy_balancer with mod_deflate... == Will Green Web Developer & IT

Hello, I am using Mechanize to post a form to a website. When I do this by hand in my browser the response takes about 35s to come back (it''s a long page full of tables and graphics). When I do this with Mechanize, the server starts to respond and then appears to hang. The obvious conclusion is that my code is wrong but I am reasonably sure that I haven''t altered it

Hello, when trying to access a certain HTML-frame, I get: "in `request'': Unhandled response (WWW::Mechanize::ResponseCodeError)" and the page returns: "400 Bad Request" * Why? * How to solve this?

I am going to bet this is a mongrel issue,because this doesn''t happen under webrick.
