ZOMG HAPPY TUESDAY (UTC-7)!!! <3<3<3<3<3 I am happy to announce that the first release candidate for Rails 3.0.6 has been pushed to rubygems.org. ## Release Candidate: What does it mean? The release candidate is very similar to what we will actually release for version 3.0.6. The reason that we release an RC is so that the community can have a chance to postpone or veto commits

I poked around the web a little and didn''t run across how to use https when it asks for certificate validation. I''m trying to connect to devices that don''t have valid certificates, and in this case, I don''t care if they are or not. So when I use my browser to ge to the site, firefox asks me to allow the certificate, then one other question, then I get the

Hey everyone, I''ve been refactoring Mechanize for an 0.7.0 release. Basically I''m trying to clean the code up and there are a few features that I think are unnecessary, but I would like to ask people first. 1) REXML as a parser. I want to remove support for REXML. I don''t use it. Hpricot seems to do everything I need. 2) 1.8.2 thru 1.8.4 support

Hey Aaron, I''m just thinking out loud here, but have you considered the possibility of using the Rhino [1] library to implement javascript support in mechanize? It''d create a jruby dependency for that feature, but still. Just thought I''d bring it up while I was thinking about it. -Mat [1] http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/

In the process of upgrading from 1.8 to 1.9 we are getting a lot of warnings about "Ruby 1.9 doesn''t support Unicode normalization yet". However the commit that added those lines is from 2008 and just mentions "Ruby 1.9 compat: no Unicode normalization support yet" without any references. Does anyone know whether this is still true for ruby 1.9 and for which minor

I found an interesting page today that I was trying to script against. The server returns a 404 with content and the page just works normally in firefox despite the 404. Mechanize raises an exception on it though. I''m working on a test case now.

mechanize version 0.6.6 has been released! http://mechanize.rubyforge.org/ The Mechanize library is used for automating interaction with websites. Mechanize automatically stores and sends cookies, follows redirects, 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: =

I knew that hpricot was a dependency, but hoe and rubyforge....is this right? Version 0.6.9 for ruby Mike B. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

Hi, Does anyone have the formula for getting logged into LinkedIn? Here''s my current attempt: require ''rubygems'' require ''mechanize'' agent = WWW::Mechanize.new home_page = agent.get(''http://www.linkedin.com'') signin_page = agent.click home_page.links.text(''Sign in'') puts "\nSIGNIN PAGE"

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'' )

Hello I am trying to fill in a form using WWW::Mechanize. I can fill in 2 of the 3 fields but one is giving me a problem. The name of this field is "name" when I use the following bit of code, it seems to change the name of the form, not the value of the field. The part of original page after pretty printing {forms #<WWW::Mechanize::Form {name "wp_pers_form"}

version 0.62 I''ve got a form that''s giving me trouble (server reports invalid session ID). Unfortunately, the form is submitted using SSL so I can''t use a sniffer to see the differences between the ruby mechanize version and the perl mechanize version that is working. Is there a way to change the form action within mechanize? Or a way to display the request headers?

I haven''t spent the time to get a proper test case for this yet, but there appears to be a bug in the basic_auth code for mechanize 0.6.9. I''ve attached a CSV (from Charles) that illustrates the problem. Basically when running with basic_auth, there''s a failed request that''s followed up by a successful request. That last POST is a agent.submit(form)

Hi, I''m using Mechanize, and I''ve developed a lot of code around it. I''d like to be able to check the Etag header during a get to see if the page has changed, as well as some other http header information. Can I do that without hacking Mechanize myself? Does anyone have any examples of how to do this? William

Hey, We hit a bug today because Arel::Visitors::ToSql is not threadsafe. Here is what is happening: Arel::Visitors::ENGINE_VISITORS is a cache of visitors instances. These instances are not inherently threadsafe because it contains state ''@last_column'', ''@connection'' that is shared between threads. The other variables ''@pool'',

So I found myself wanting to call Mechanize#get with a hash for arguments like this: WWW::Mechanize.new(''http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/'', {:method => ''flickr.auth.getFrob''... }) Granted, it looks like this isn''t supported but it led me to what looks like a bug. Namely that get calls fetch_page(abs_uri, request, cur_page, &block)

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
