I'm using Perl's module Mechanize to save craigslist's captcha, but the captcha does not load when I'm using Mechanize, Any ideas why this happening?


Regards
 
Is this because it does not support javascript? would this be possible with php Curl?

www::mechanize does not support javascript. you have to fool it by loading the script manually with another call ( this is the iframe), decoding what it means etc.

Is there any examples that you can share? I don't understand how the image will get to my perl program if it loads in my browser with iframe.
 
Just use separate calls for each you need to load. its not that hard

How can I find out what those calls are? Would they show up in Firebug?
 
it can be done in both. I apologixze to the person that PM'd me awhile back. I've been busy trying to launch an website but I'll PM you now
