Message-ID: <4146F3B4.3020504@financialdatacorp.com> Fellow mongers; I am trying to implement a somewhat simple automated password change program utilizing the module HTTP::Mechanize and for some reason it will not fly! The concepts seem straight forward enough and the examples that I have been able to locate seem to match pretty much what I am doing. Just doesn't seem to send the 2nd page along. Have any of your ever worked with this module? And if so, care to share some notes or comments? Thanks guys.

Facilities to put machine-understandable data on the Web are quickly becoming a high priority for many organizations, individuals and communities. The Web can reach its full potential only if it becomes a place where data can be shared and processed by automated tools as well as by people. For the Web to scale, tomorrow's programs must be able to share and process data even when these programs are designed independently. This tutorial will provide an overview of the Semantic Web as well as a discussion of the supporting standards, novel applications and increasingly available tools and technologies. Attendees will learn to prototype business relationships via URIs in RDF and to think in distributed resource relationships. Who Should Attend ----------------- Anyone interested in understanding or applying the Semantic Web principles today.
