I am using Windows XP, ActivePerl 5.10.1, and Mechanize 1.6 (that came with my install accoring to PPM). I cant get a single URL to work. All I get is "Bad hostname". I copy the URLs from my browser to my code and still no luck (browser works fine). Here is the code:
-----------------
#!/usr/bin/perl
# Include the WWW::Mechanize module
use WWW::Mechanize;
# What URL shall we retrieve?
$url = "http://www.google.com";
# Create a new instance of WWW::Mechanize
# enabling autoheck checks each request to ensure it was successful,
# producing an error if not.
my $mechanize = WWW::Mechanize->new(autocheck => 1);
# Retrieve the page
$mechanize->get($url);
# Assign the page content to $page
my $page = $mechanize->content;
# Output the page
print $page;
-----------------
Here is the output I get at the commmand line:
-----------------
C:\Data\Perl> mechperl.pl
Error GETing http://www.google.com: Can't connect to www.google.com:80 (Bad hostname 'www.google.com') at C:\Data\Perl\mechperl.pl line 15
Any help is appreciated.
