Subject: browse only returns females
Hi, unfortunately, it seems that browse() method returns only females even though genderMen is specified. Also it only returns 40 results which is strange. Do you know what's wrong with it? Thank you, Sergey

The browse() method seems completely broken now. When you go to http://browseusers.myspace.com/browse/Browse.aspx there is no link with "friendID". All the links are like http://www.myspace.com/tom and not like http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm? fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=6221 The perl script is still looking for friendID... I think the better solution is to write a function that returns a list of friends_urls instead of friendID. And if required, an option to visit each of these friend_urls to get the friendID...

You can note also that all the variables have changed. For example : - ctl00$Main$ctl00$Gender is now ctl00$ctl00 $cpMain$cpMain$Browse$CriteriaView$gender - ctl00$Main$ctl00$country' is now ctl00$ctl00 $cpMain$cpMain$Browse$CriteriaView$GeoLocation1$ddlCountry ... Show quoted text

Hi, Thanks for this! I think all of the maintainers are pretty busy right now, but if you can submit a patch with the necessary fixes, that will greatly improve the chances of getting this fixed and in the next release. More info on how to do this is found here: http://search.cpan.org/~stevenc/WWW-Myspace-0.92/lib/WWW/Myspace.pm#HOW_TO_SUBMIT_A_PATCH Thanks again, Olaf
