Perl WWW::Mechanize and Dynamic Forms

[Edward Drake]

I'm trying to interact with a web page that uses JavaScript to add fields to a form if certain things are selected in the first field.

I've tried doing something like this...

$mech->get($someurl );
$mech->field('field1' ,'selection2');
$mech->field('created _field','data') ;
$mech->click('submit' )

This doesn't work because created_field doesn't exist until the javascript runs so Mechanize doesn't know about the field because when

So my question, is there a way to add a field to a form after getting the page? I know what the field I need is and I really don't need the javascript to run (I understand that Mechanize can't run javascript anyway.) I just need to be able to manually add in the field. Any help with how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

I would think you can add in the form field manually, but I can only suggest you read the WWW::Mechanize documentation or wait and see if someone knows how to do this.
