in reply to www::mechanize reloading page

If you'd done a
use Data::Dumper; die Dumper($content);
You'd see this:
<SCRIPT> if(self==top)top.location.replace("/?"+document.location) </SCRIPT>
Got it? :-)

So this would work:
#!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use CGI qw/:standard/; use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); my $url = "http://www.letssingit.com/frame_menu.html"; my $query = "avril"; use WWW::Mechanize; my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new(agent=>"wonderbot"); $mech->get($url); print header,start_html("lyrics grabber"); $mech->submit_form( form_name => 'search', fields => { s => $query, l => 'song', # or 'artist' or 'album' or 'lyrics'. }, ); my $content = $mech->content; $content =~ s/self==top//; print $content;
