Subject: having trouble w/ installing WWW-Mechanize-FireFox on Win 7
Date: Tue, 27 Jan 2015 11:07:22 -0500
To: bug-WWW-Mechanize-FireFox [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Jeff EI69 Stalzer <ei69jeff [...] comcast.net>
The instructions at: http://search.cpan.org/~corion/WWW-Mechanize-Firefox-0.78/lib/WWW/Mechanize/Firefox/Installation.pod do not appear to be correct. I followed instructions up to step 7 ("Tools" -> "MozRepl" -> "Start") but on Firefox 35.0.1 I can't find "tools". MozRep did seem to install OK. Are these the instructions for WWW-Mechanize-Firefox or just the add-ons for Firefox? Also the Install button http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/CORION/WWW-Mechanize-Firefox-0.78/INSTALL just says "See lib/WWW/Mechanize/Firefox/Installation.pod". Where are the actual installation instructions (or where is lib/WWW/Mechanize/Firefox/Installation.pod)? Thanks, Jeff

The document is about how to install the components needed. I don't know where the menu entry is in your version of Firefox. I use a version localized for German and there the "Extras" menu, which is commonly translated from the "Tools" menu, contains the mozrepl add-on settings. Show quoted text

The file is included in the CPAN distribution. You can either download and unpack the distribution file and read the information offline or go to http://search.cpan.org/~corion/WWW-Mechanize-Firefox-0.78/lib/WWW/Mechanize/Firefox/Installation.pod and read the online version there. Hope that helps, -max
