NAME

WWW::Mechanize::Plugin::DOM::Window - Window object for the DOM plugin

VERSION

Version 0.011

DESCRIPTION

This module provides the window object. It inherits from HTML::DOM::View and HTML::DOM::EventTarget.

METHODS

location

Returns the location object (see WWW::Mechanize::Plugin::DOM::Location). If you pass an argument, it sets the href attribute of the location object.

alert
confirm
prompt

Each of these calls the function assigned by one of the following methods:

set_alert_function
set_confirm_function
set_prompt_function

Use these to set the functions called by the above methods. There are no default confirm and prompt functions. The default alert prints to the currently selected file handle, with a line break tacked on the end.

Returns the navigator object. This currently has three properties, appName (set to ref $mech) appVersion (ref($mech)->VERSION) and userAgent (same as $mech->agent).

You can pass values to appName and appVersion to set them.

setTimeout ( $code, $ms );

This schedules the $code to run after $ms seconds have elapsed, returning a number uniquely identifying the time-out.

clearTimeout ( $timeout_id )

The cancels the time-out corresponding to the $timeout_id.

open ( $url )

This is a temporary placeholder. Right now it ignores all its args except the first, and goes to the given URL, such that ->open(foo) is equivalent to ->location('foo').

window
self
frames

These three return the window object itself.

mech

This returns the WWW::Mechanize object that corresponds to the window.

length

This returns the number of frames.

FRAMES

You can access frames by index or by name by using the window object as an array or hash, respectively.

THE %Interface HASH

The hash named %WWW::Mechanize::Plugin::DOM::Window::Interface lists the interface members for the window object. It follows the same format as hashes within %HTML::DOM::Interface, like this:

  (
      alert => VOID|METHOD,
      confirm => BOOL|METHOD,
      ...
  )

It does not include mech.
