Thanks for the reply. I suspect you might be right about ppm and ActiveState in this case. I removed the ActiveState version and went to CPAN.

My first attempt was to download and attempt to install the most current version of Mech now out there (1.02). Of course, in an ideal world installing a module would be "no problem", but things never run quite so smoothly for me. I hit a dependency with HTML::Parser (v 3.3) for LWP and I could not get it to 'make'. It appears to need a different compiler; but that's a battle I shall save for another day.

I went back several versions of Mechanize and settled on version .59. Probably since it is such an old version it installed nicely. All of my mech code runs again. And I'm back to square one.

I'm getting different errors, but I can't get any response on my multi-select form. If the documentation on CPAN regarding WWW::Mechanize is any indication, I'm not going to be able to get that to work with this version no matter what I do.

If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
