Changes for version 0.73_03

  • ENHANCEMENTS
    • WWW::Mechanize now sends an Accept-Encoding header of "identity" to always enforce plaintext responses. Preliminary support for Compress::Zlib is also there, but is disabled by default.
    • Added click_button() and select() methods. The field() method can now take an arrayref of values, if appropriate. Thanks, Linda Lee Julien.
  • FIXES
    • Still more fixes if the machine you're on doesn't have DNS pointing to it.

Changes for version 0.73_02 - 2004-03-02

  • FIXES
    • The local changes use localhost as the local host name, instead of whatever host name that might be on the box, but not in DNS. Thanks to David Wheeler for letting me play on his box.

Changes for version 0.73_01 - 2004-02-28

  • ENHANCEMENTS
    • URLs in META REFRESH tags are now treated as links.
    • t/taint.t makes sure that things that should be tainted are.
  • FIXES
    • The http_proxy and HTTP_PROXY environment variables get deleted during the tests that access the dummy local server. This should let your tests pass, and clear up a lot of RT tickets.
