You can drive a real browser using Selenium (Test::WWW::Selenium) (which
supports quite a few) or something like WWW::Mechanize::Firefox.  These
require a bit more work than a simple mechanize script (for Selenium, you
need a java-based driver running, and WWW::Mechanize::Firefox requires
firefox with a specific plugin installed) but you still code in perl.  I've
had great luck with older versions of Selenium (haven't tried anything
recent) for testing Firefox and IE.
