[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.

  • Added url_abs and url_abs_regex params to find_all_links().

  • URLs in META REFRESH tags are now treated as links.

  • t/taint.t makes sure that things that should be tainted are.

[FIXES]

  • Still more fixes if the machine you're on doesn't have
    DNS pointing to it.

  • 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.

  • 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.
